A Maple Leaf: And Other Sketches

Paperback (Forgotten Books March 6, 2018)
Excerpt from A Maple Leaf: And Other SketchesBut this sympathetic unity with men, so essential to true success in the Christian min iatry. Is, at the same time. Very enervating and exhausting. He was a true disciple of the Master, and, like Him, he knew what it was to have the energies of life flow out of him to give vitality to others. His relation to his people was not a mere professional one, but the ties that united them were intimate and vital, and developed into exalted and sacred friendships. And his interests and sympathies were too human and too fundamental to be bounded by his congregation or limited by his denomination. His parish was the community. And his ministry was to human need. He fed and clothed the poor, he visited the sick, com forted the sorrowing and mourning, gave cour age and hope to the dying, brought penitence to the sinful, and revealed the Christ to all. He won men by his message and found them by his ministry because he linked his life with their lives and divided their burdens with them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
