"Just as Joseph Smith’s yearning for God’s truth led to his First Vision, others of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century sought God’s guidance and received what John Wesley called “experimental proof of the ever blessed Trinity.” Cope considers the lives of three important religious women and how their divine revelations manifested in different ways yet were all connected by each woman’s personal suffering. In revealing the lives and experiences of Ann Lee (founder of the Shakers), Catherine Livingston Garrettson (a Methodist), and Elizabeth Bayley Seton (a Catholic), Cope expresses the importance of exploring individuals’ inner histories in relation to religious movements."
