About this title

Synopsis

The Times, and Signs of the Times: Baccalaureate Sermon offers a 1862 address on nation, faith, and the forces that shape history.

This historical lecture, preached at Washington College in 1862, explores how politics, religion, and slavery collide in a nation at war. It presents a framework for understanding “the signs of the times” and what they mean for the country’s future.

Readers will encounter a calm, measured voice that frames slavery, constitutional ideas, and national unity as part of a larger moral and theological conversation. The work presents the author’s views in a sermon format that remains focused on guidance, duty, and hope during a time of upheaval.

Context for Civil War-era debates about slavery, politics, and religion
Definitions of how “the signs of the times” signal national change
Arguments about the role of church, government, and conscience in public life
Historical reflections on unity, sovereignty, and the nation’s future

Ideal for readers of historical sermons, Civil War history, and religious writing from the 19th century.
