Excerpt from Church Work

The object of this book is to give to the layman and lay-woman who are conscious that their posi tion involves responsibilities, suggestions which may help them in setting to work and in that work itself. The writer perhaps has not experience enough of the other side: depfyoic aa'év éoprd sang Theocritus, and there is no doubt a spiritual side of the dolce far niente. But there is danger in these suggestions, and the Christian can surely not forget that the first recorded words of the Son of God testify to the reality of obligations and the need of work. They are words that should be pondered more often nowadays, and this book is an attempt to illustrate their meaning.

Excerpt from Church Work

The object of the Oxford Library of Practical Theology is to supply some carefully considered teaching on matters of Religion to that large body of devout laymen who desire instruction, but are not attracted by the learned treatises which appeal to the theologian. One of the needs of the time would seem to be, to translate the solid theological learning, of which there is no lack, into the vernacular of everyday practical religion; and while steering a course between what is called plain teaching on the one hand and erudition on the other, to supply some sound and readable instruction to those who require it, on the subjects included under the common title 'The Christian Religion,' that they may be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh them a reason of the hope that is in them, with meekness and fear.
