Book Phillips Brooks  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Phillips Brooks Classic Reprint written by Mark Antony De Wolfe Howe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phillips Brooks In preparing this volume the writer has been struck by the fact that as yet there is very little written about Phillips Brooks excepting by members of his profession. Possibly, this gives a layman the better reason for venturing to touch the subject in his own way. He has not touched it, in this instance, with any hope or wish of doing what a clergyman might do with it. If there is too little of theology, he trusts there is not correspondingly too much of the personal Phillips Brooks. Indeed, he does not believe this to be possible, and would be better content if he couldfeel that the man of whom he has written had been more clearly and completely pictured in the narrative.

This book was released on 2017-01-18 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rememberances of Phillips Brooks There were no very recent Harvard men then in the seminary and Phillips Brooks came to us unheralded. I do not know that there had been much to say of him. He had stood well in his class but had made no exceptional mark. He had taught school for a few months, not alto gether successfully. He made no Immediate impression on us. He was modest, quiet, re served, with rathe'r more of the Massachusetts frostiness, than he exhibited in later years after contact with various men. He was in the class of which my brother was a member. It was through my brother that presently I came to know him well. A little later a new hall was built, some distance back or the main building; those who chose drew lots for the occupancy of one of its' dozen rooms. Brooks, Thomas Yocum now of Staten Island, my brother and I were among the fortunate ones, and were hence forth thrown a good deal together by our mutual neighborhood and our slight isolation from the other students. The seminary life was simple and primitive. Many of us sawed our own wood, made our own fires and did nearly all our own chores. The 1driver of the mail wagon did our few errands and made our few purchases at Alexandria. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

If I may instance John the Baptist once more, I would remind you that that was his way. Behold the Lamb of God! - that was all he said, but it sufficed; the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. John the Baptist might have gone into an argument about the Messiahship, he might have elaborated a theodicy of the Atonement, but no, he knew that seeing was believing, and so he simply said, Behold the Lamb of God 1.

This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks When he returned to Philadelphia on the first Sunday in September, he found the same large congregations awaiting him, but he remarked that they were mostly strangers. He returned to take up his work with new vigor and enthusiasm. The year that now followed was prolific in sermons, each week seeing the completion of two; he was determined, if he could help it, not to repreach an Old sermon. In addition to new sermons on Sunday, he gave a weekly lecture in the church on Wednesday evenings, and on Saturday evening he met a large Bible class, composed of members of his congre gation. To his Sunday-school he gave a large part of his time and interest, speaking of the pleasure it was to him to look upon their young fresh faces. He made special pre paration for their anniversaries, and excelled in talking to Children. He pressed his friend Mr. Strong into their ser vice, by getting him to write special hymns for their use. The church was full of life and interest, shown by the heroic efforts to raise the debt which harassed and crippled it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phillips Brooks in Boston: Five Years' Editorial Estimates In the prayer-book there is a form Of supplication for all sorts and conditions of men. The editor Of a daily newspaper, to be fit for his work, must constantly study, not necessarily the wishes, but the wants of those included within the entire scope Of that comprehensive prayer. It was my deep certainty that Phillips Brooks was the one man in this day and generation who could best meet the religious needs of all sorts and conditions Of men which led me to undertake, five years ago, the task Of pointing out to the miscellaneous public, through the editorial columns Of the Advertiser, certain characteristics Of Boston's greatest preacher, and to pursue this plan systematically from year to year. There were reasons why it seemed that in some respects a secular journal would be a better medium than any other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phillips Brooks: The United Service of the Churches of Boston at the Old South Meeting-House, Boston, January 30, 1893 So soon as the announcement was made of the death of Phillips Brooks, a general desire was felt that a meeting of the clergy of all communions might be held, to express their sense of his worth and their grief at parting from one who is remembered so fondly as a personal friend. The arrangements for this meeting were made that it might be held on Monday, the 30th of January, at the Old South Meeting-House. The proprietors of the Old South Meeting-House gladly opened it for this purpose. For such purposes, or in the wish to have a central place in which the common thought and common purpose of Boston may express itself, has this venerable meetinghouse been preserved. The committee are glad to publish the addresses made on this occasion in affectionate memory of one whose voice has so often been heard on occasions of public interest in this house, dedicated to all the best interests of the town of Boston.

It was one of the first of the Gothic buildings of this country, which were built after church architecture had begun to waken and aspire, and few that followed it equalled its dignity and calm impressiveness. The lighter and more fantastic styles of building Sprang up in the city. The timber spires that made believe they were stone leaped up With unnatural levity into the sky; the cheap stone sculpture covered and deformed great, feeble fronts; the reign of imitation came; and in the midst of all of them Trinity stood, in its exterior, at least, strong, genuine, solid, with its great rough stones, its broad bold bands of sculpture, its battlemented tower, like a great castle of truth, grim, no doubt, and profoundly serious, but yet able to win from those who worshipped there for years an affectionate confidence and even tender yearning for love.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks, Vol. 1 To this end, I have given greater space to his formative years and to his earlier ministry than those who were familiar only with the Boston ministry may think was necessary. But he valued his early years, and cannot be understood without them. Not only were the foundations of his greatness there, but the ministry in Philadelphia and the experiences of the civil war called forth a manifestation of power such as his later years never surpassed. Philadelphia was always in his consciousness, even when he seemed so identified with Boston that people almost forgot that he had ever lived elsewhere.

Every one, indeed, noticed dur ing his last visit to England that he looked much thinner than he had done two years before, but he always spoke of himself as perfectly well, and his great boyish heart seemed as full as ever of love and hope and joy I noticed in him a just perceptible deepening of gravity in tone, but no diminution of his usually bright spirits He resembled our common friend, the late Dean Stanley, in the fact that his genius had all the characteristics of the heart of childhood taken up and matured in the powers of manhood.

Download or read book Phillips Brooks Memories of His Life written by Alex V. G. Allen and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phillips Brooks Memories of His Life: With Extracts From His Letters and Note-Books The Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks was published in 1900, some seven years after his death. Since then an abridgment has been frequently and urgently called for, on the ground that a large number of people who would like to know Phillips Brooks have not the time to read so full a biography, whose cost also is in many cases prohibitive. In reducing the work some parts have been rewritten in order to condensation, but care has been taken to preserve everything of importance bearing on his development, and to maintain the perspective of his career. The very kind and generous reception accorded to The Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks is here most gratefully acknowledged. It indicates how deeply he had stamped his personality upon the American people, and what enduring impression he had left by his unprecedented power in the pulpit. The love and devotion which went out toward him in such unstinted measure while living have not ceased with his death. He is still speaking to the world he loved - the world whose growth he wanted to live in order that he might see. His message has not been, and cannot be, outgrown. He had solved in his capacious mind and heart the issues which still confront us. In extraordinary manner he combined a love for the historical Christ and insight into His life and teaching with a devotion so rare to the essential and eternal Christ, whom the Church has worshipped, that he seems to belong to what arc called the "Ages of Faith" rather than to the world of doubt in which he lived. Among his large utterances which tend to reconcile and encourage, this was one of the foremost, - that all humanity constitutes, according to the divine ideal, the body of Christ; and another was that the words of Christ "I am come not to destroy but to fulfil" applied not only to the spiritual aspirations and movements of His own age, but to those of every age and country.

His Lenten addresses at Trinity Church were so good that people hung upon his lips for the simplest word that he uttered. When he went to New York to give addresses in the venerable old Trinity Church at the head of Wall Street, it seemed as if the whole financial world was eager to crowd into that ancient edifice and hear of its duties and have pointed out its way to the king dom of heaven by this greatest of modern evan gelists. Phillips Brooks had the rare faculty of never speaking nonsense: he never gushed in religion; he always respected the inborn nobil ity of men and addressed himself to a sinner as if he were a child of God. This accounts for. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
