Excerpt from Family Manual of the Broad Church: Containing, Amongst Other Things, an Order of Public Service, Catechism, Forms of Administration of Broad Church Rites, Private Devotions and Hymns for the Use of the Families and Children of the Broad Church

This humble volume, for the most part a mere compilation, has been prepared with the hope of increasing the true church sentiment in the hearts of the American people. The compiler believes that the religious exigencies of every human soul and the peculiarities of our national character and condition make the Church if not a divine institution at least a human necessity. The work Of Protestantism will never be fully accomplished until the prayers and ordinances of the Church have been rescued from the dungeons of medieval scholasticism, and have become the inspiration of all the free men and women in America who desire to worship God without forswearing themselves upon a creed which they either do not understand or do not believe.
