What is the Amana Church?
The Amana Church, or as it is more formally known, “The Community of True Inspiration,” was begun in 1714 primarily by two men, Johann Friedrich Rock and Eberhard Ludwig Gruber, who believed that man should have a personal relationship with God, study the Holy Scriptures, and lead a life of moderation. These men and their followers believed that people could be inspired by God to give testimony to His word.
