Campbell, Alexander, 1788-1866

Campbell, Alexander, 1788-1866

 
Campbell was born in Ireland and educated at the University of Glasgow. At the age of 21, he came to Washington County, Pennsylvania, where his father was a minister, and was ordained to the ministry himself. In 1840, he founded Bethany College in what is now Bethany, West Virginia. He also edited two religious periodicals: the Christian Baptist (1823-30) and The Millennial Harbinger (1830-66). Though he came to dislike denominational labels, he is sometimes credited with being one of the founders of the Disciples of Christ.

A list of his publications appears in the University of Pennsylvania’s Online Books Page. Additional information can be found on Campbell’s Wikipedia page and a number of other websites. He is also the subject of Robert Richardson, Memoirs of Alexander Campbell (Cincinnati: Standard Publishing Company, 1897).

    Campbell User Guide

    Robert H. Ellison

    The User Guide for the Library of Appalachian Preaching is a Google Sheet that can be searched, sorted, and downloaded for offline use.

    At the moment, Campbell has only one sermon in the Library; it has a Guide of its own so the records will be complete. It includes the title, sermon text, date and place the sermon was preached, and so on. This information is available in the master list of sermons as well.
