Publisher's Synopsis
Predigt Am Erndtefeste 1836 presents a historical sermon delivered by Johann Georg Wilhelm Förtsch on the 18th Sunday after Trinity in the parish church of Redwitz, Germany. This sermon was given shortly after a devastating fire in the market of Redwitz. Förtsch's words offer insight into the community's response to the disaster and the role of faith during times of crisis. This historical document provides valuable insight into religious life and social conditions in 19th-century Germany. The sermon reflects contemporary theological perspectives and offers a glimpse into the pastoral care provided to a community facing hardship. It will be of interest to historians, theologians, and anyone interested in German cultural and religious history.
