Excerpt from The Victorious Faith: Moral Ideals in War Time
This book is issued with the conviction that we may well give less attention to war as an external enterprise and regard it in the light of its bearings on the whole life of man. For man the individual no doubt bears relation to the nations in their throes and successes, and there must be values of great moment on the inner or human side of the events which war has forced upon our attention. Furthermore, both men and nations do under pressure, in times of stress and peril, what they apparently cannot accomplish in times of peace. The war has been uncommonly fruitful in this respect. It has brought us even amidst the uncertainties and the miseries new evidences of moral and spiritual faith. The same facts which at first baffled us have proved illuminating in so far as we have gained the inner point of view. What we now need is a yet greater impetus to gather up the human lessons and learn their bearings on the things of the spirit.
