His shop soon had the air of a school, with books and maps and charts always lying about. His friend Scott joked that the shop was ‘Carey’s College’. At the Hackleton Meeting House he joined discussions. Once a month now they discussed the churchman’s obligation to evangelize, not just within his parish but to the entire world.

No longer could rigid Calvinism dismiss all efforts at missionary work in other countries as useless because God had already chosen his ‘elect’.”",

They nurtured him, much as the women of nearby Bedford had nurtured the great John Bunyan in his days of doubt. Willy read all about that in Bunyan’s Grace Abounding. There seemed little argument in the meetings over the old question of whether good works or faith or both saved a soul. Most everyone believed faith alone was enough. The real issue these days was Calvinism. Calvin’s belief in predestination seemed always at the forefront of discussions. “If we are all predestined to salvation or damnation what good is it for a person to try to do anything about it?” asked one. “The”",
