Week 6 Lecture Notes Supplemental

So, you have a rough overview of the Puritans after having read the lecture notes. Now, let's delve more deeply into Puritan thought. Visit the following link to read more about the Puritan beliefs: Puritan Beliefs. (Click on the words "Puritan Beliefs")

When you visit that page, I'd like you to read about the Puritan covenant of "Grace" first. You will learn that their usage of the term grace is different from what we typically think when we hear that word. Usually we think of "graceful," like the way someone moves or acts, or "grace," as in saying grace at the table. The Puritan Covenant of Grace was neither of those.

After you have read up on "grace," explore and learn about the other different beliefs they held. This will give you a ton of useful information to use in order to answer this week's IRAP prompt.

So, hopefully you'll learn all the ins and outs of what it was to believe as the Puritans did so that your IRAP will be awesome!
