Adin Ballou was born in 1803 to a hard-working Baptist farm family in the northeast corner of Rhode Island.

Hosea Ballou (1771-1852) was the most influential of the preachers in the second generation of the Universalist movement.
Given that Channing criticized Ballou on the subject of Ultra Universalism, it is not surprising that Ballou would carry the argument to Channing on the subject of salvation, specifically the Unitarian concept of "Salvation by Character." The Unitarians’ version of Arminianism led them to urge individuals to work on self-culture, striving for the moral life.
