It reflects the theological emphasis and practical concerns of clergy serving their congregations during a time of significant social and religious change. For researchers, students, and anyone interested in the history of Christian ministry, this book offers insights into the intersection of faith, ritual, and community support during times of sickness and vulnerability.
