Excerpt from A Religion for the New Day The author of this book will be very grateful if it proves helpful to ministers of religion, and specially to young ministers who wish to keep young. He has in mind, however, not so much professional ministers alone as that larger and more important class of men and women of whom the word minister may fairly be used to describe an honest purpose to add some value to the life of the world. We are facing to-day a momentous crisis in his tory; certain profound facts are 'at last becoming obvious. Most people profess a religion in which they do not truly believe. They have come to the point where they are dimly aware of the unreality of their faith, and of the insincerity involved in this attitude: it hurts their consciences and lowers their moral health. The world is bound to come out of this state of mind either better or worse. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
