Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Missionary Methods for Sunday-School Workers, Vol. 1
The day is coming when the Sunday-school that has not sent some of its members to a home or for eigh mission field, while at the same time numbering still others in its membership as volunteers pledged to go, will be ashamed and self-condemned. The reason why Sunday-schools generally have not yet reached this high but practicable standard is because most Sunday-school workers do not know what the Sunday-school is, and what is the real end of its effort.
For example, the-sunday - school is often spoken of as the church of to-morrow, or the child of the church, or the children's church, or as a branch or a depart ment of the church. None of these definitions tells the whole truth. All of them are misleading.
Again, the purpose of the Sunday-school is com mouly spoken of as Bible-study. And the great end of the Sunday-school is usually said to be soul-winning. Both of these statements are not only inadequate, but positively harmful in the narrowing, stultifying limita tions that they impose.
