Or, The Inner History of a Consecrated Life.
“As a brief and concise summary, a bird’s-eye view of the life of Jesus this volume will be of value.”—_Reformed Church Messenger._
The author’s ambition is “to tell in the most vivid and practical form for men living in the world to-day the story of Jesus of Nazareth in its culminating scenes.” One could exhaust adjectives in praise of the author’s management of the dramatic form and his blank verse. It is a wonderful work. The dedicatory poem alone is of such surpassing beauty that one will never forget it.
“In many respects the best writings Mr. Meyer has issued. They are eminently practical, and the pointed and piercing ideas of the Master are explained and brought home to personal character and life in an illuminating and stimulating way.”—_Watchman._
Presented with confidence to pastors, missionaries and other visitors in the homes of sorrow, as likely to prove a most valuable aid in their trying experiences. Although primarily a service book for funerals, it is vastly more than this. With Scripture selections of exceptional suggestive values and a collection of poems of comfort both rare and striking the little volume will be greatly prized.
A study originally presented from the platform of the Northfield Conferences, awakening exceptional interest at the time. No more suggestive work has appeared from Dr. Morgan’s pen.
Not a new theory of Immortality or a review of old theories, but a presentation with rare literary charm and with the comprehension of wide scholarship, of the grip of the Christian heart upon the life to come. It will comfort and assure the sorrowing, guide and convince the inquiring.
A brief prayer for every day of the year, and it is not too much to say that, although scarcely any one of them contains one hundred words and most of them far less, they will drive straight to the heart as nothing that ever came from Mr. Jowett’s pen. It is an extraordinary little book, the flower of the sweetest, open eyed love of Christ. The impression of a single page is indelible.
Suggests thoughts of the utmost importance as to the daily need of retirement, the true spirit of prayer, the fellowship with God, and kindred topics.
