In Dreams Where Have You Gone? Clues for Unity and Hope, author William G. McAtee tells the story of the Union Presbytery Movement through interviews, records of oral accounts, and first-hand experience. McAtee shows how the Union Presbytery Movement came into being in 1969 and illustrates the events leading up to this. He explores the dynamics of its relationship with both the Presbyterian Church in the United States (‘the Southern Presbyterian Church’) and the United Presbyterian Church in the United States of America (‘the Northern Presbyterian Church’) until the reunion of these bodies in 1983 and the formation of the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. (PCUSA). In this personal and inductive recounting of history, McAtee provides insights to guide the denomination today as it moves into the future.
