I felt it as something wonderful that I was allowed to address a congregation every Sunday about the deepest questions of life.'' In these words Albert Schweitzer recalled his early formative ministry at the Church of St. Nicolai in Strasbourg, where he delivered these sermons. Dr. Schweitzer occasionally remarked that he preached not as a theologian but as a layman. With extraordinary penetration, he grapples with the ageless questions of the human heart - the purpose of life, the meaning of death, the uses of suffering. While his basic concern is with the souls of his listeners, a proximity and relationship with Jesus Christ glows through his words like a hidden fire.''
