Dr. William Ellery Channing (1780–1842) was the foremost Unitarian preacher in the United States in the early nineteenth century and one of Unitarianism's leading theologians. Known for his articulate and impassioned public speaking and sermons, Channing was a prominent thinker in the liberal theology of the day. Dr. Channing's religion and influence was most lasting upon the Transcendentalist movement that inspired famous American authors like Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau, who took Channing’s teachings even further. Ironically, Channing himself found the Transcendentalists radical.

Nevertheless, he became the primary spokesman and interpreter of Unitarianism when he preached the ordination sermon of Jared Sparks in Baltimore in 1819, a sermon that came to be known and titled "Unitarian Christianity." In that address, Channing explained the distinctive tenets of the Unitarian movement, one of which was the rejection of the traditional Christian teaching of the Holy Trinity. Other important tenets were the belief in human goodness and the subjection of theological ideas to the light of reason.

"What shelter have we from the wildest fanaticism, which can always quote passages, that, in their literal and obvious sense, give support to its extravagances?" - William Ellery Channing, Unitarian Christianity

I find the suggestion that a noted nineteenth century theologian and minister should "read his Bible" laughable but it is not my place to judge. I think such criticisms of liberal Scriptural interpretation are handled quite well by Channing himself in the text. As to this e-book in particular, it should be noted that the content itself can be found freely on the Internet - this sermon is considered a historical document - but the superior formatting of the edition might justify paying the cover price. Your call.

"Do not, brethren, shrink from the duty of searching God's Word for yourselves" - William Ellery Channing, ibid
