Book Description
Excerpt from Creed and Character Now, this is what we are so strangely given to ignore. We discuss Christianity as a set of theological ideas, which have more or less value; or we examine into its facts and records, by which it subjects itself to historical criticism. But we seem to forget that what it claims to be is a living Kingdom of Christ; by which it means that it attempts to assimilate to itself the entire body of human affairs, whether internal or external, whether private or social, so that they shall obviously and visibly display the dominion of a single master-mind, the Mind of Christ. The validity, indeed, of this dominion, its potency, its authority - these depend on the literal reality of certain historical facts. If Christ did not rise again the third day, no such dominion can exist. But, if the dominion exists at all, then it exists in the form of what I have spoken: and, if so, then it is, through out its length and breadth, the manifestation of a Personal Will in action Upon the affairs of earth.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Development of Character: A Practical Creed The following brief chapters were written in the belief, that the cardinal principles upon which a good character is based are susceptible of absolute demon stration; and the attempt has been made to present these demonstrations as nearly as possible in the terse, direct manner in which a geometrical proposition is proved, without any effort toward oratory or epigram. Technical terms have been avoided, and it is hoped that the subject has been presented in language that will enable every candid mind to follow the argument and perceive the correctness of the conclusions. The object sought is not mere academic assent to a series of propositions, but a. Practical adoption of the prin ciples set forth in daily life and in the formation Of character.

Book Description
Excerpt from Bible Lessons on the Creed That the truths expressed in the Creed are of importance for a child to know is hardly open to question. The Creed is a summary of the Gospel story, a brief statement of the love of God revealed in Jesus Christ. This we propose to take as the theme which our course shall endeavor to bring home to the children. And as the basis of each lesson we propose to take a passage of the Bible, so chosen as to set' forth in order the great ways in which God has made himself known as the God of love. The theme of each lesson is, therefore, a certain aspect of the central theme of the course, and is, at the same time, definite and complete in itself. In the development of each lesson we aim to keep close to the revelation recorded in the Bible, and in the course as a whole to give prominence, as the Creed does, to those great facts in the life of Jesus Christ by which he is made manifest and God the Father is fully revealed through him. Thus the Bible supplies the sources for all our teaching. The method of preparation and teaching here proposed is described under the heading How to Teach the Creed, and worked out in the following pages. How the children are expected to prepare the lessons is shown by the Outline for Pupils, to which the present Lessons correspond. Whether the method is practical and adapted for general use can be determined only by a fair trial. It has, at least, been planned and developed with the advice and cooperation of skilled teachers, and it is now offered to the Church only after being tested and improved by seven years' use. The Outline was printed in a simpler form in 1898, and helps for the teachers were prepared in manuscript. They both have been used since that time in St. Mark's Sunday-school, Washington. If the method has value, the credit is due to the teachers of St. Mark's; for it could have been worked out only by their intelligent and faithful cooperation, acknowledgment of which is most thankfully made. Too great emphasis can hardly be laid on the fact that this book is not intended to supply ready-made lessons. It aims to give material for the teacher to use, and to present it in such a manner that good lessons can readily be pre pared. But it is purposely arranged in such a way that the material is not available for teaching in its present form. To use it you must make the material your own, think the lesson through, and plan how you will teach it in class.
