F. W. Bakewell

The Beacon

The Reverend F. W. BakewellChrist Church (Congregational)in The BeaconMorecambe, Lancashire, England

The Christian life must never be thought of as something isolated from what a man may call his legitimate secular pursuits. A man does not act now and again as a Christian and at another time as a politician or a schoolmaster ...or a tradesman or whatever else he may be. Christian vocation does not cut across life's normal activities, it is bound up with their every aspect, and thereby gives to it a special quality and a spiritual significance. The life of the individual Christian is something which is in the process of becoming a unity. A Christian is one in whose life the division between the secular and the sacred is ceasing to have any reality.
