Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from What Did Jesus Really Teach About Prayer?
We have been blaming the college for un settling the faith Oi our young people, and no doubt some colleges deserve all the harsh things we have said about them; but it is time we were playing fair; it is time we were demanding of ourselves why we persist in sending our young people to college with a faith that will not bear the light. Modern science has indeed played havoc with our misinterpretations of Jesus and our pagan ideas, but it has yet to disturb a single teaching of Jesus. Why have we not taught them the teach ings of Jesus?
More than one great secular paper has recently expressed the opinion that what this country needs most of all is an Old-time revival Of religion. N O doubt this is true, but what this country needs first Of all, is a revival Of faith that will make a real revival of religion possible. And certainly, if our faith is to be revived, we must look after the foun dations of faith upon which we are trying to stand. We must get rid Of the stones that are crumbling - our misinterpretations of Jesus and our pagan ideas - and we must put in their place the everlasting granite truths of Jesus.
