However Talbott is one of many Cumberland Presbyterian Churches throughout the world. The Cumberland Presbyterian Church was founded in 1810 in Dickson, Tennessee as an outgrowth of a revival movement called the Second Great Awakening. Variations of beliefs and practices caused a group of ministers and churches in what was the Cumberland Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church to become separated from the main Presbyterian body. We believe and practice a WHOSOEVER WILL doctrine; that is, whoever would seek after Jesus Christ may know Him and be saved. Cumberland Presbyterians believe that the Bible is the Infallible Rule of Faith and Practice for all believing Christians. Go to www.cumberland.org for more information.
