In the early 1800s, Universalist, Hosea Ballou, debated Unitarian, William Ellery Channing, on the nature of God and what happens after death. Ballou criticized the Unitarian “Salvation by Character” with a publication, Salvation Irrespective of Character. These two ministers, and their decades of debate, shaped both Unitarians and Universalists and who we have become today. What can we learn from the past to inform who we are becoming in the future?
