| Summary | “From Bondage to Liberty in Religion: A Spiritual Autobiography” by George T. Ashley is a spiritual autobiography written in the early 20th century. The book explores the author's personal religious evolution, transitioning from strict orthodox beliefs to a broader, more liberal approach towards faith. It delves into the conflicts and challenges he faced as he navigated his understanding of religion and sought a rational basis for his beliefs. At the start of the autobiography, Ashley introduces the influence of his early upbringing and the orthodox views instilled in him by his family, particularly in relation to concepts of sin, damnation, and salvation. He recounts his childhood fears of hell and personal accountability, which deeply affected him. A significant event during his youth was the realization of "the age of accountability," which intensified his anxieties about sin and eternal punishment. As he reflects on his early education and the rigidity of the religious doctrines he adopted, Ashley sets the stage for his quest for spiritual liberty and a more authentic understanding of faith, revealing the internal conflicts that would lead him on a journey marked by doubt and discovery.
