Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks, Vol. 1 The task of preparing the Memoir of Phillips Brooks has been delayed by circumstances which could not be controlled, until it is now more than seven years since the world was suddenly called upon to mourn his departure. There came a sad interruption, in the death of the Rev. Arthur Brooks, in July, 1895, who had made such progress in the short time he had been engaged on the biography that, had he lived, he would soon have completed it. When the materials for writing the life were placed in my hands, in the fall of 1895, I was occupied with other work, and this was not finished till the fall of 1897. From the moment that I was free to begin the task, I have devoted to it all the time that could be spared from my professional duties, and have labored to hasten its completion, keenly aware that the popular interest in Phillips Brooks impatiently demanded the appearance of the book which should tell to the world the story of the life by whose greatness it had been so profoundly moved. When I began to write, I supposed that my task would be easier than I have found it. The study of the material convinced me that I was dealing with a character singularly complex despite its simplicity, a career wherein there were epochs and distinct phases of development. There was danger of doing injustice, or of failing to appreciate motives of action. The full meaning of events and deeds did not at once appear. Time was required before the insight was gained revealing the relative significance of what was obscure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.

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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks, Vol. 2: Part I Rhode Island, the late Rev. John Cotton Smith, and Dr. Henry C. Potter, the present Bishop of New York. But this arrangement had not worked well. It was a case of divided responsibility. The assistant ministers were not free to carry out any projects of church extension, while the bishop was also hampered by the double burden he was carrying. When in 1869 the bishop resigned the rectorship, it was felt by all that a new era had dawned in the history of Trinity Church. The new rector brought with him to Boston the ways he had learned from Dr. Vinton, and which he had put into successful practice in Philadelphia, - the Wednesday even ing lecture, the Saturday evening Bible class, and the com municants' meeting in preparation for the Lord's Supper. These were the methods of the Evangelical school in the church. Things were beginning to change at this time, new modes of parish activity were becoming popular, and a com plicated machinery of what was called church work was coming into vogue. Much of it was adopted by Mr. Brooks, though without display or ostentation. He was equal to any one in appropriating methods of activity and in administer ing them wisely. But he preferred the Wednesday evening lecture to the observance of Saints' Days, as being a fixed occasion in the week, while the latter came irregularly and were in danger of being neglected. Thus Wednesday even ing became a sacred occasion. One of the first fruits of his ministry in Boston was to find the chapel of Trinity Church too small for the purpose, and calling for an imme diate enlargement. But this did not meet the need, and the service was transferred to the church, where every seat was occupied.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Letters of Phillips Brooks, Vol. 2 It was a noble building in its day. 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.
