Ran across this piece by Josh Powell on Shubal Stearns (who was instrumental in spreading the Great Awakening to the South) and the Separate Baptists. I thought I'd pass it along because it touches on ordinances, the role of women in the church, the doctrines of grace and other topics. Hope it's not a duplicate.

A friend of mine, Elder John Sparks, wrote a book on Shubal Stearns called: "The Roots of Appalachian Christianity: the Life and Legacy of Shubal Stearns"
His website is at:

Just thought I'd thrown in my 2 cents. -
Thanks!
