Print on Demand. This book offers a collection of sermons by Regina'd Heber Howe, who was invited to give a series of Noon Day Services at St. Paul's Church in Boston. The author's thoughtful and moving words address the various stresses of life as they were known in the late 19th century. The volume starts with the premise that none of us is exempt from the need to hear a voice that speaks to the disarray of our souls. Howe finds that voice in the person of Jesus Christ, whose words are a comfort to those facing the stress of distractions, temptations, doubt, poverty, discouragement, and sorrow. The author explores what Jesus has to say to each of these life challenges and offers a message of hope and healing that transcends the specific conditions and concerns of Howe's time. These sermons will encourage reflective readers today who seek a voice of wisdom and peace to guide them through life's inevitable trials. 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.…

Find guidance for when life pulls at your attention and your peace feels frayed.
This compassionate exploration asks what Jesus would say to the pressure of modern life, offering practical reflection on distractions, doubt, poverty, and sorrow.
Through a series of insightful questions and carefully drawn examples, the book frames how the busy, restless world presses in on the soul. It traces common responses to this pressure—overwork and ascetic withdrawal—and looks to the voice of Jesus for a calmer, steadier path. Readers are invited to listen for a message that speaks to wearied minds and unsettled hearts.
By engaging with passages about doubt, need, and suffering, the work shows how belief can grow from honest struggle. It highlights Jesus’ personal compassion, the testing of belief, and the idea that choosing to do what is known to be right can illuminate truth. The goal is not to promise effortless relief but to point toward rest and a deeper trust that endures through hardship.
- Examination of life's everyday distractions and their impact on faith and peace.
- Discussion of how doubt can meet clear guidance when one seeks to do what is right.
- Illustrations of the compassion of Jesus toward the poor, the suffering, and the weary.
- Reflection on how trials can lead to a stronger, more grounded faith.
Ideal for readers seeking thoughtful, nonjudgmental guidance on faith amid life’s pressures and for those drawn to reflective Christian essays.
