Today's episode focuses on the man that is considered the Father of the Congregationalist Church as well as the Father of the Pilgrims and the Grandfather of the United States, Robert Browne also known as Trouble Church Browne. Browne is famous for being the first to set up a separatist church in England after the establishment of the Church of England. Browne may have been, ultimately, a coward who caved to the religious and civil authorities of his day but he started a movement that has had enormous impact on the world we live in today.
