Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pilgrim and the Book: A Dramatic Service of the Bible, Designed to Be Used in Churches, Written for the American Bible Society At the invitation of the American Bible Society, through its General Secretaries, Dr. William I. Haven and Mr. Frank H. Mann, I have written this Dramatic Service, designed to be used in churches. Being in some respects the first of its kind, the text is followed by certain Comments and Suggestions, which, it is hoped, may be of use to ministers, choirmasters, and teachers, in preparing to hold the Service with their own congregations, choirs, and Sunday schools. The theme of the Service is the power of truth, as revealed in the Bible, to set free the human soul, in particular from the shackles of Persecution and the Fear of Death. This theme applies historically to the spiritual struggles and achievements of the Pilgrim Fathers, but also symbolically to Man himself as a pilgrim seeking "freedom to worship God." The purpose and form of the Service are not, then, in any sense those of an historical pageant; they are rather those of a new (and very old) relationship between dramatic expression and religious aspiration, seeking to fuse these in a ritual of plastic simplicity, adaptable to all congregations, whether of meetings very small in chapels, clubs and schools, or of great gatherings in large churches and cathedrals.
