Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from My Life With Young Men: Fifty Years in the Young Men´s Christian Association This work is the autobiography of the greatest leader in the life of the American Young Men´s Christian Association greatest in that true sense in which Christ defined greatness - when He said that he who would be greatest among you shall be the servant of all. What leader has for so many years served so many men of so many lands? Here we also have given in epitome all that is most significant in the history of the Young Men´s Christian Association. What movement has been so fortunate as to have as its historian one whose life has spanned the more than three score years and ten of its history, and who has himself been an influential factor in nearly every page of the history which he has narrated with such fidelity and judicial quality? Furthermore, these pages afford an interesting background of the religious life of the last two generations. This period has been characterized among other things by the wonderful development and organization of the lay forces of the Church, by the larger and more scientific application of the social principles of Jesus Christ to the life, the work and the relationships of men, by the drawing together in closer fellowship and cooperation of the various Christian communions, and by the world-wide expansion of the Christian religion. The author of this book has helped to guide the Association with such prophetic spirit and wisdom that it has had a large part in facilitating the achievement of these notable results. Great and numerous in other directions as have been the services of Richard C. Morse to the nations and the churches, his distinctive mission has been that of the leadership of the Young Men´s Christian Association for more than half a century.
