Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Congregational Administration: The Carew Lectures Before the Hartford Theological Seminary 1908-1909 The following lectures, published substantially as they were delivered, attempt to state sympathetically and constructively the principles of the Congregational polity with reference to present phases and problems. Attention is not turned upon the past. The Scriptural deduction of our principles and the story of our historic development have been given repeatedly. These lectures, while consistent with the past, desire to serve immediate conditions and emergencies in our church life. We are in no little confusion, such as always attends progress. There are earnest inquiries and disagreements among us respecting methods of procedure. Reorganizations in the interest of closer ranks and united action are proceeding in many parts of the land, and as well in oversea Congregationalism. We are feeling our way toward the better thing. That there is a better thing and that we can and must achieve it large numbers of us are convinced. The Congregational churches in large majority seem in tent upon becoming the Congregational Church. Our problem is that of an efficient democracy, how to organize an effective union without over riding or fettering personal and local liberty; or, in the words of Mr. John Fiske, "the task of combining indestructible union of the whole with indestructible life in the parts."
