Synopsis

Excerpt from The New Layman for the New Time: A Discussion of Principles

Creeds are fossils, dried bones in a valley of death, unless they blossom and fruit in cups Of cold water, in visits to the sick and imprisoned, in loving-kind nesses shared with our brother-men for the Master's sake.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the regrettable phenomenon of inaction among the laity of the church, arguing that their passivity is a betrayal of the faith. The author traces the historical evolution of the lay-minister divide, highlighting that the early church was characterized by the active engagement of all believers in spreading the gospel. The author contends that the modern emphasis on professional clergy has eroded the sense of personal responsibility among the laity, leading to a decline in evangelism and social outreach. The book explores the consequences of this inaction and offers practical solutions for revitalizing the church by empowering laypeople to fully participate in its mission. By challenging traditional notions of clericalism and emphasizing the priesthood of all believers, this book aims to inspire a resurgence of lay activism and restore the church to its rightful place as a transformative force in the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331648550_0
