Excerpt from Christian Work as a Vocation

The two books entitled Christian Work as a Voca tion and Modern Christian Callings aim to acquaint the reader with the nature and opportunities of the lead ing Christian Callings and the personal and educational qualifications necessary for success in them. The work of these professions is so important for the individual and for society, and the demand for specially trained men is so great, that it is hoped these two books of this kind will prove helpful to young men contemplating some form of such service as a life work as well as to the organizations that represent these Callings in their efforts to secure recruits. These books are designed primarily for use among college men. Christian Work as a Vocation deals with the Ministry, the Foreign Missionary Field and the Young Men's Christian Association. Modern Christian Callings treats of Biblical Teaching in School and College, Executives in Church Enterprises, and Social Service.

Excerpt from Christian Work as a Vocation

In many colleges and universities voluntary work in moral and religious education is done as distinct from the formal and often required work in Ethics, the Psychology and Philosophy of Religion, and Biblical Literature. This work relates more especially to the development of the moral and religious life of the student and his preparation for Christian service in the community. In many institutions it is carried on under the direction of the college or university Christian Association. It seems eminently desirable that a Literature specially adapted to this kind of college work should be available. The Christian Service Series is designed to meet this educational need.

Furthermore, all of the great Christian Callings are increasingly recruiting their leaders from college men and women. Indeed, several of these professions practically secure all of them from college ranks. This makes it desirable, in fact necessary, that there should be a Literature explaining the nature of these Callings, the opportunities they furnish for the highest kind of service, the qualifications necessary for success in them, and the imperative call to college men and women to supply the demand for efficient leadership in these various forms of Professional Christian work. Such a Literature would be used in discussion groups in connection with the college or university Christian Association. The Christian Service Series makes provision for this need also.

The following books are included in the Series:

1. Fundamentals of Religious Experience. (To be arranged.)
