Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Free Synagogue Pulpit, Vol. 4: Sermons and Addresses; 1916-1917
Hauptmann is genius enough to make the dismal part of the church touching industrial peace and unrest seem dismaler still as he contrasts the prostitution of the organized church with the purity of men's faith in the Bible, the Bible's word and the Bible's God. With what withering power he pictures the church of God in its relation to the mighty and the privileged as he paints a portrait of one of the masters of industry warning the churchman that the peace of society is being undermined and that this menacing process can be stayed only if the church again preach the pure word of God to the workers, that these were patient, peace able and easily manageable until roused and infuriated by clerical and other equally disturbing humanitarians.
