Excerpt from A Challenge to Life Service
In the midst Of our modern world, where confusion is made more confused by the immense publicity that is given to all our problems and shortcomings, the individual Christian man or woman wonders in a kind Of amazed perplexity, What can one Of us possibly do in the face of a situation like this?
These studies are intended to indicate the lines along which each individual may work out the answer for himself. F ac ing the great problems of the modern world, an attempt is made to point out the lines of Jesus' solution, and to examine frankly whether the Christian can apply them as he meets present day conditions. It is hoped also that help is given in the discovery Of how one may make the entire round Of life - working hours and spare time alike - serve the Kingdom Of God.
Readings and Suggestions for Thought and Discussion have been omitted from Chapter I, which is introductory. Daily Readings have also been omitted from Chapter XII in order that full consideration may be given during the week to the actual questions raised in the Study for the Week.
The authors wish that these studies shall be regarded as suggestive. The themes handled are of such consequence that no one can claim any finality in their treatment.
While those who write must accept final responsibility, this book truly represents the results of the experience of many men and women who have put their material freely at the disposal Of the authors. Throughout its whole course, the work has been done in the closest cooperation with the mem bers of the Committee on Voluntary Study of the Council Of North American Student Movements and the members of the sub-committee on College Courses of the Sunday School Council of Evangelical Denominations; they are especially to be thanked for their patience, persistence, and courtesy in constructive suggestion.

Excerpt from A Challenge to Life Service
"A Challenge to Life Service" is the fourth of a series of text-books known as College Voluntary Study Courses. The general outline for this curriculum has been prepared by the Committee on Voluntary Study of the Council of North American Student Movements, representing the Student Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations and the Student Volunteer Movement, and the Sub-Committee on College Courses of the Sunday School Council of Evangelical Denominations, representing twenty-nine communions. Therefore the text-books are planned for the use of student classes in the Sunday School, as well as for the supplementary groups on the campus. The present text-book has been written under the direction of these Committees.
The text-books are not suitable for use in the academic curriculum, as they have been definitely planned for voluntary study groups.
This series, covering four years, is designed to form a minimum curriculum for the voluntary study of the Bible, foreign missions, and North American problems. Daily Bible Readings are printed with each text-book.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the profound teachings of Jesus and their relevance to the pressing social issues of the present day. The author argues that Jesus's vision of the "Kingdom of God" offers practical guidance for confronting challenges such as poverty, labor strife, racial injustice, and international conflict. Despite the significant progress made since Jesus's time, the author suggests that these issues persist due to a lack of faith and a failure to fully embrace Jesus's principles. The book provides a framework for understanding the root causes of these problems and proposes a path forward based on Jesus's teachings of compassion, service, and brotherhood, emphasizing that lasting solutions can only be found through collective effort and a commitment to a more just and equitable society.
