Synopsis
Excerpt from The Call of a World Task in War Time
These studies have been prepared as part of the ad vance missionary program which emanated from the Student Volunteer Conference held at Northfield, Mass, January 3-6, 1918. It was felt by leaders of the Student Christian Movements in the United States and Canada that accompanying a call to the students of these nations for intensified missionary undertakings in this college year there should be the promise of a new course of study interpreting the present world situation in terms of missionary responsibility. It was with much reluctance that the writer consented to pre pare a book within the brief compass of a month on so immense and important a subject. The haste with which it has been written will account in part for its obvious limitations of material and style. For those who will use this book as a textbook for group study there have been added Questions for Thought and Dis cussion and Suggestions for Auxiliary Reading.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound message of reality in religious life that God has amplified during war time. The author contends that although war is a necessary evil, its destructive nature can be countered through Christ, who offers the positive force of rebuilding, redemption, and growth. The author presents a profound call to action, urging readers to face their religious weaknesses with humility and to recommit to living out their faith in both thought and action. The author emphasizes the need for a Christian internationalism that transcends national boundaries and promotes justice and cooperation. This internationalism, the author argues, is the only way to vindicate Christianity and demonstrate its true character in the face of war's devastation. The author astutely positions this need for Christian internationalism within the broader context of the increasing interdependence of nations and the growing international spirit. This book is a timely and thought-provoking exploration of the role of Christianity in a world grappling with war and its aftermath. Its insights on the need for genuine religious experience and international cooperation remain as relevant today as when the book was first written. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330594513_0
