Abstract
Dissenters, whatever their cause, challenge the boundaries of their society. Revivalist dissenters are no exception. Their dissent has often been studied in terms of doctrinal nuance and generational tension. The slight variations of enthusiasm are bewildering to the outsider if dissent is understood simply as a ‘second generation movement’ attempting to ignite past passion in a revival that has become clerical and formulaic. This essay places one particular instance of revivalist dissent within the wider context of a counter-cultural stance towards migration, disadvantage, local spirituality and ecclesiastical governance and suggests that the movement is better understood by this holistic approach.
