Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Minister in the Itinerant System
Looking over Christendom at large, or lim iting the View merely to the United States of America, one is impressed by the fact that a large number of ministers are without churches and that many churches are Without pastors. Hence, one of the pressing questions is How shall the idle preachers be given employ ment, and how shall all the vacant pulpits be supplied and kept supplied with ministers, and, further, how can this be done in the most prompt and effective way? In some denominations the church itself must secure its own pastor and the minister himself must find his own place; but, with this liberty, there continue to be very many vacant churches and a large number of unemployed ministers.
