Edwards Amasa Park

Edwards Amasa Park (December 29, 1808 – June 4, 1900) was an American Congregational theologian.

[1] An ardent admirer of Jonathan Edwards, whose great-granddaughter he married, Park was one of the most notable American theologians and orators.

[1] Park's sermon, The Theology of the Intellect and that of the Feelings, delivered in 1850 before the convention of the Congregational ministers of Massachusetts, and published in the Bibliotheca Sacra of July 1850, was the cause of a long and bitter controversy, metaphysical rather than doctrinal, with Charles Hodge.

Some of Park's sermons were published in 1885, under the title Discourses on Some Theological Doctrines as Related to the Religious Character.

With Austin Phelps and Lowell Mason he prepared The Sabbath Hymn Book (1858).
