Author Description

Excerpt from Prayer Wearing his heart upon his sleeve, - but do we not sometimes, do we not often, in fact, lose valuable opportunities of sympathy and mutual encouragement by carrying our reticence on religious subjects too far? Is it not sometimes an unworthy self-consciousness Which makes us shrink from opening our hearts to one another about things which, after all is said and done, are the most deeply interesting, the most urgently important things in the world - not (to us Christians) abstract speculations, but emphatically the things Which belong unto our peace. I believe it to be one, and not the least admirable, of the fea tures of that so-called Evangelicalism which did so much for the Church of England in a past period, and is now again reasserting itself and colouring the teaching of men supposed to stand.
