Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reformed Pastor Such is the opportunity on which the writer of these introductory pages seizes, for addressing his appeal to his honoured brethren of every name, and more especially to the clergy of his own church, with the view of carrying on Baxter's great design, and reviving the power of true religion amongst them. May he open his heart in all simplicity? May he at least, after thirty or forty years' observation, sug gest to his younger brethren something which may tend, under the blessing of God, to promote a re turn to primitive zeal and love amongst the clergy? May he be permitted to admonish and rouse his own conscience, Whilst he attempts to excite others? And 0, blessed Spirit of Christ descend Thou upon the writer and the readers of these pages! Vouch safe success! Fulfil thy gracious office, as the comforter of the Church, by touching our hearts, and reviving thy work effectually amongst us! Let thy ministers be open to thy reproofs, and hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches! In the first place, then, your attention, honoured and beloved brethren in Christ, shall be directed to some topics of humiliation; in the next, to some grounds of hope; and, lastly, to several points of duty, as subservient to a revival of pure Christianity amongst us.

Download or read book The Life Writings of Mary Baker McQuesten written by Mary J. Anderson and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did a privileged Victorian matron, newly widowed and newly impoverished, manage to raise and educate her six young children and restore her family to social prominence? Mary Baker McQuesten’s personal letters, 155 of which were carefully selected by Mary J. Anderson, tell the story. In her uninhibited style, in letters mostly to her children, Mary Baker McQuesten chronicles her financial struggles and her expectations. The letters reveal her forthright opinions on a broad range of topics — politics, religion, literature, social sciences, and even local gossip. We learn how Mary assessed each of her children’s strengths and weaknesses, and directed each of their lives for the good of the family. For example, she sent her daughter Ruby out to teach, so she could send her earnings home to educate Thomas, the son Mary felt was most likely to succeed. And succeed he did, as a lawyer and mpp, helping to build many of Hamilton’s and Ontario’s highways, bridges, parks, and heritage sites, and in doing so, bringing the family back to social prominence. Mary Baker McQuesten was also president of the Women’s Missionary Society. The appearance, manner, and eloquence of various ministers and politicians all come under her uninhibited scrutiny, providing lively insights into the Victorian moral and social motivations of both men and women and about the gender conflicts that occurred both at home and abroad. This book will satisfy many readers. Those interested in the drama of Victorian society will enjoy the images of the stern Presbyterian matriarch, the sacrificed female, family mental illness, the unresolved death of a husband, and the dangers of social stigma. Scholars looking for research material will find an abundance in the letters, well annotated with details of the surrounding political, social, and current events of the times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Value and Efficiency of the Ministry: A Charge Delivered to the Clergy of the Diocese of Maine, in Christ Church, Gardiner, at the Annual Convention, July 9, 1862 If, therefore, the Christian ministry, in some of its aspects and relations, be the subject of the present address, I would do something more than simply to stir up your hearts and my own to the watchful fulfilment of our vows of ordination. I would, if I might, display in such a light the value of our office to the maintenance and propagation of the religion of Christ, to every interest of the Church, to the highest welfare of society, and to each individual soul, that both we and the people of our charge should be constrained, in our several ways, more gladly and zealously by far than ever before, to support and honor it in its fullest efficiency.
