Show Notes

Many are aware of the accomplishments of William Wilberforce and his successful initiatives to abolish slavery and introduce institutional reforms in the United Kingdom. What is not known, however, is that his work is indebted to his closest friends, the ‘Clapham Sect,’ a group of men and women dedicated to being instruments of social and moral welfare. This underground group was highly influential in ingraining Christian principles into British Institutions and government. Learn more in this message narrated by Aimee Riegert.
