Excerpt from The Social Message of the Modern Pulpit
When the invitation to deliver the Lyman Beecher Lectures at Tale University for the year 1905-6 came to me, I very naturally, in the selection of a theme consulted the main lines of interest in my own work as a Christian minister. I have been for some years especially interested in expository preaching as a suitable and profitable method of presenting religious truth to a congregation, and in the application of the principles of the Gospel to social conditions. After consultation with the Dean of the Faculty, it seemed to me possible to combine both of these interests in the course of lectures which I was asked to give.
I have accordingly embodied in this course a brief study of the Book of Exodus, dealing with it entirely on the sociological side, both as an illustration of this method of relating ancient Scripture to modem life and for the sake of the real content of the book as it bears upon "the social message of the modem pulpit," which is my main theme.
