Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Joy of the Ministry: An Endeavour to Increase the Efficiency and Deepen the Happiness of Pastoral Work
And help we elder ones verily need after all our years of service. If time makes our work easier in some ways, in others it makes it harder. The spiritual vision is apt to grow dim, and spiritual efforts to fall into routine. Practice, indeed, makes it easier to Speak and preach. Long experience gives judgment in dealing with mankind; but the fire on the altar sometimes burns low, the smouldering embers need to be stirred from time to time, so that the ?ame may burst forth again with quickened vigour, and souls may be kindled by the glow of our enthusiasm, as well as lives directed by our maturing wisdom.
