    Remembering Zinzendorf

    Rev. Tony Cooke

    Count Nikolaus von Zinzendorf is not widely known among American Christians today, but were it not for him, we might have never heard of John Wesley. In October of 2022 I was privileged to preach in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. It was originally a Christian settlement established by Zinzendorf and his followers, known as the Moravians.

    Born into wealth in 1700 in eastern Germany, Zinzendorf received a group of persecuted Christian refugees on to his estate. This group, known as Moravians, were the spiritual descendants of Jan Hus, the Czech reformer who had been burnt at the stake one hundred years before Luther came on the scene.

    In 1727, the believing community at Herrnhut (Zinzendorf’s estate) experienced a dynamic outpouring of the Holy Spirit that is sometimes referred to as “The Moravian Pentecost.” The people experienced the presence of God in remarkable ways, and a twenty-four prayer-meeting began that lasted more than one hundred yea

    Count Zinzendorf

    Nicholas Ludwig, Count Zinzendorf, was born in Dresden in 1700. He was very much a part of the Pietist movement in Germany, which emphasized personal piety and an emotional component to the religious life. This was in contrast to the state Lutheran Church of the day, which had grown to symbolize a largely intellectual faith centered on belief in specific doctrines. He believed in "heart religion," a personal salvation built on the individual's spiritual relationship with Christ.
