John Murray: Questioning the Expectations of Heaven and Hell
Rev. Kent McKusick
On September 30, 1770, the Rev. John Murray preached one of the first sermons on universal grace in America. Having been raised in the English Reform tradition, Murray’s questioning of a fearful God resulted in excommunication, a journey to America, and preaching the hope of universal salvation for everyone, the seeds of a free and responsible search for truth.
