Publisher's Synopsis
The Sunday School: Its Origin, Mission, Methods And Auxiliaries is a book written by H. Clay Trumbull and first published in 1888. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history, purpose, and practices of Sunday schools, which were institutions dedicated to the religious education of children and young adults. Trumbull explores the origins of Sunday schools in England in the late 18th century and their subsequent spread to the United States and other countries. He discusses the mission of Sunday schools, which was to provide religious instruction to children who may not have access to formal education or who may not receive adequate religious education at home. Trumbull also explores the methods used by Sunday schools to teach children, including the use of Bible stories, songs, and memorization. Additionally, he examines the various auxiliaries that supported Sunday schools, such as libraries, missionary societies, and teacher training programs. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious education or the role of Sunday schools in the development of religious institutions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
