Excerpt from Faint, Yet Pursuing, and Other Sermons
The publisher of "How to be Happy though Married" suggested to me that some of the many readers of that book might like to have the thoughts of the writer on more serious subjects - if there is any subject more serious than matrimony. Hence this little volume. The sermons in it have at least one merit - they are short. It is true that even a short sermon may be tiresome. We have all heard of the answer that some one gave to a clergyman who said that he had made his sermon short, and hoped that he was not tedious: "And yet you were tedious." But no clergyman can avoid being tedious to those who are bored even with the text, which is sure to be the best part of his sermon, and before anything else has followed.
