Publisher's Synopsis
A Jubilee Retrospect is a collection of five sermons delivered by J.C. Wigram in 1849, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the Church Missionary Society. The sermons reflect on the progress of the Gospel of Jesus Christ over the preceding fifty years, both in terms of the spread of Christianity throughout the world and the growth of the Church in England. Wigram discusses the challenges faced by missionaries and the importance of their work, as well as the need for continued evangelism in the years to come. The book provides a valuable historical perspective on the state of Christianity in the mid-19th century, and offers insights into the challenges and opportunities facing the Church today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
