Excerpt from Interludes in a Time of Change: Ethical, Social, Theological Most of the papers in this volume have been used either in print or in public addresses at various times during the past dozen years. However dissimilar, they have a certain unity. They deal with various aspects of the change which has recently come over human thought - the greatest change that history records as effected within the period of a single life completely effected already in many minds, while in many more either incomplete or even unbegun, yet advancing as irresistibly as the ocean tide. To contribute his mite to this advance has been the writer's purpose. Acknowledgment is due here to the courtesy with which the publishers of The Forum, The Homiletic Review, The American Journal of Theology, The New World and The Outlook have granted permission for the reprints here included. In the revision required for this republication some rephrasing and some expansion have here and there been found desirable.
