Excerpt from Preacher Problems: Or the Twentieth Century Preacher at His Work

IN preparing this volume the author has had a specific object in view. That object is to supply the twentieth century preacher with suggestions as to his word and work. The book is not a compilation of matter from works on homiletics and pastoral theology. It is the result of the author's own personal experience in a minis try of over fifty years. During this long period of active ministry. He has served some of the most important churches in both Europe and America, and at the same time he has been intimately associated with the public press of these countries, by which means he has been brought into intimate contact with the needs of the public ministry of a very wide parish, and consequently the knowledge thus obtained has enabled him to deal with the problems, considered in this volume, from a some what comprehensive point of view.

The author has also had considerable experience in the training of young men for the ministry, both in colleges and in special training classes, and this experience has furnished him with material at first hand with which to treat the educational side of the preacher's preparation for his work. Indeed, the entire contents of the volume were originally prepared as lectures for ministerial stu dents in colleges and universities, though some of the lectures have been delivered before preachers' institutes and associations.
