Book Description
Excerpt from A More Christian Industrial Order A distinguished ethical teacher of New York City recently remarked in conversation The Christian Church believes that Jesus is the disclosure Of the purpose of God for all time. Why, then, does not the Church find in Jesus a solution for the industrial question Of our day and offer the guidance which it claims to possess? It is a challenge which Chris tians dare not refuse. It puts to the practical test our assertion that Jesus is the wisdom of God. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Christ in the Industries The reader must understand the scope of this little book. It is not written for the specialist. It is a brief survey of the industrial field from the standpoint of the Christian believer. It is suggestive, and not exhaustive. It is written for busy people, who have no time for an extended treatise, and perhaps no tastes for the details of sociological study, and yet would like to keep abreast of modern movements, and of the new applications of Christian thought.

Book Description
Excerpt from Industrial Day-Dreams: Studies in Industrial Ethics and Economics No one has a deeper sense of the inadequacy of the present book as even a slight contribution to the direct solution of vexed social problems, than has the author. His only hope is that it may have some little indirect influence in stirring up those who have more ability and knowledge than he has, but who perhaps have not devoted much time to the considera tion of social questions. The appeal here made is to those whose interests are mainly religious. In many religious circles still there seems to be hardly any idea of the intimate connexion existing between religion and the industrial life of society. Much of the prevailing apathy and indifference would vanish at once if it were realized that their circles intersect. Earnest workers in the religious sphere are often so fully occupied that they lack the most elementary knowledge of the true nature of the problems involved or of the remedies suggested. It is hoped that some such workers will find here an introduction - for this is all it can offer - to the general subject of industrial ethics and economics. It is urgently necessary that the Christian Church as a whole should address herself to the social problem.

Excerpt from The Church and Industrial Reconstruction: The Committee on the War and the Religious Outlook This volume is the third in a series of reports that is being issued by the Committee on the War and the Religious Outlook, an interdenominational group appointed by the joint action of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America and the General War-Time Commission of the Churches "to consider the state of religion as revealed or affected by the war, with special reference to the duty and opportunity of the Churches." In the preparation of this report on The Church and Industrial Reconstruction the Committee on the War and the Religious Outlook has been greatly assisted by a special subcommittee whose counsel and criticism have been invaluable. President W. H. P. Faunce served as the convener of this group and with him were associated the following: Rev. William Adams Brown, George W. Coleman, Dr. Edward T. Devine, Harold A. Hatch, Rev. F. Ernest Johnson, President Henry Churchill King, Rev. Frederick H. Knubel, Dean Shailer Mathews, Bishop Francis J. McConnell, Rev. J. Howard Melish, Rev. Frank Mason North, George Foster Peabody, Professor Herbert N. Shenton, Miss Florence Simms, Professor Alva W. Taylor, Rev. Worth M. Tippy. To scores of others, including business men, manufacturers, and labor leaders, as well as teachers, social workers, and ministers, the Committee is indebted for many fruitful suggestions and constructive criticism. The report as a whole has been drafted by the Secretary of the Committee on the War and the Religious Outlook.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Message of Jesus to Men of Wealth Among the notable signs Of the times is what might be called, for lack of a better term, the intellectual supremacy of Jesus Christ. He has always commanded the conscience even when the will has rebelled. For nineteen hundred years men have acknowledged Him to be the loftiest exemplar of all moral excellence even though they refused to follow in His footsteps. Men have willingly conceded to Him the deepest Spirit ual insight and the highest authority touching religious truth, even though they deemed the Sermon on the Mount inapplicable to practical life. They are now beginning to see that His Words contain the solution of the great problems of this life, as well as of that which IS to come that He 18 the Saviour of society no less than of individual souls; that to disregard His teachings is poor statesmanship and bad political economy as well as bad morals and irreligion. Property is one of the central facts of civilization. Its production, transportation and distribution, engage men's industries; its acquisition is the common object of endeavor; the love of it is the root of all evil. It would have been strange indeed if the Great Teacher had had little or nothing to say concerning so great a factor in human life. As a matter of fact he had very much to say concerning it, not only by way of illustration, but also touching the fundamental principles of its use.

Book Description
Excerpt from Selfhood and Service: The Relation of Christian Personality to Wealth and Social Redemption It is hoped there is a message in these pages interesting alike to the man of faith and the man of science, more interesting where the two are combined. The motive of the writing is a deep sympathy with the weak, who are forced to the wall in the awful industrial contest of life - the defective, the dispossessed in our present social chaos. The strong need no friends, they can fight their own battles, but the Christian may well say, Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, and let my arm wither, when the one shall cease to plead the cause of the poor or the other refuse to defend him. But the facts of Christian history and the stern laws of life must be regarded. A permanent social order can come only from a constructive principle which regards those facts and measures those laws. This principle is set forth here, at once consist ent with the claims of personality and the work of social redemption.

Excerpt from Shall We Stand by the Church?: A Dispassionate Inquiry The epoch that has begun with the termination of the Great War is to be a period of reconstruction. Industrial, political, international institutions are being scrutinized, and subjected to a criticism more searching than ever before. Education, art, litera ture, marriage, the press, the courts - there is loose in the world the spirit that would prove all things in order to hold fast only to that which is good. It is clear that the Church cannot escape its pitiless search light. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
