Excerpt from Ultimate Conceptions of Faith
This book contains the lectures delivered in the autumn of 1902 in Yale University on the Lyman Beecher foundation. The first and third chapters were not given as lectures, but they are deemed essential to the course of thought; and of the remaining chapters only about two thirds could be read within the reasonable limit of time prescribed. While the book was originally written for publication, and substantially as it stands, it owes its existence wholly to the invitation with which its author was honored as Lyman Beecher lecturer. Although nothing could exceed the kindness with which the lectures were received both by the students and the faculty of the Divinity School, it should be said that upon the writer alone rests the responsibility for the opinions expressed and maintained.
A great tradition of power has descended to the Congregational ministry of New England, and through it to the Christian ministry throughout the country.
