After looking for a suitable location to build a "City of God," Dowie purchased 6,000 acres of farmland in Benton Township, and brought his followers to create a social utopia. Although Dowie's leadership was criticized for its anti-democratic tendencies, he was ahead of his time when it came to social issues relating to the working class and minority groups. He…
