#OnThisDay in #history - in 1591 Anne Hutchinson (nee Marbury) was baptized in #England - Anne's spiritual convictions led to her trial, conviction, & expulsion from Massachusetts Bay Colony in the Antinomian Controversy.
A follower of John Cotton, Anne believed in 'absolute grace', a grace not brought of works (but of faith alone), and was eloquently vocal of her support of his interpretation. She reached women through her midwifery and weekly Bible study meetings. #OTD#histodons@histodons
