"A new evangelism," is the hunger-cry of half-fed Christianity, bending above the world-cradle of to-day. Starved upon husks of dead, tough theology and still doubtful of the new crop corn-in-the-ear; mocked by the brazen make-believe of conformity and opportunism; dazzled by the sumptuous parade of more than Magian splendor in the stable chamber of the lowly Babe of Bethlehem; sick of soulless ceremonial and other counterfeit sanctities; appalled by the encroachments and pretensions of materialism in many masks; distracted upon beholding her noblest activities barred from the sanctuary and turned over to the nursing of outside societies and movements unfettered by regime; desperate at last to get back and close to the breast of her Lord; the Church is finding speech to proclaim her longing for a real life and a real part in the world's work.

Rev. C. Ellwood Nash, D.D.

The Universalist Leader.
