Excerpt from Modern Church Management: A Study in EfficiencyWE are living in a new age. God has not changed but His world has changed. Jesus is the same but the eyes of our under standings have been opened to see vastly greater pur poses and glories in His life and work. In this chang ing, growing world, only a growing, changing Church can be all things to all men and institutions that it may win them to accept Christ as the only Saviour of individuals and of society.Our science, wealth and population have increased more during the past forty years than during the preceding four hundred, and the Church is just begin ning to feel to the full the' results of these changes.From the beginning to the close of the present world war, men's ideals and ideas and methods will advance more than during ten times the period in the nineteenth century. Democracy, commerce, industry and social organization are taking thousand-league steps.They must not out-distance the Church. In the approaching high-tide of opportunity for religion and the Church, she must advance even faster than other institutions. Putting aside all sectarian and debatable matters, she must press to one supreme goal, to make Jesus Christ King in every life and in every com munity, in every nation and in all human interests.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
