Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Spiritual Forces in American History, 1899: A Sermon Preached at the Seventy-Third Annual Meeting of the Congregational Home Missionary Society, in Hartford, Conn;, May 23, 1899
No deeper words were ever spoken by our Lord. They touch the roots of individual and social life.
We may well consider them at this Missionary Anniversary, for they express the fundamental principles of all our effort. In the belief that it is the Spirit only that giveth life, that the forces of Christian Faith, Hope and Love are essential to personal and national well-being, this Home Missionary organization has carried on its fruitful work for nearly three-quarters of a century, touching with divine vitality the ever-expanding domain of the Republic. It is this truth that has burned in the souls of those Christian men and women who have followed our civilization in its majestic march to the Pacific.
In the light of it we may well review the victories of the past, study the problems and perils of to-day, and peer into the future with a wise, unfaltering Faith.
