Excerpt from Twenty-Fifth Annual Report of the Woman's Division of Christian Service Board of Missions, the Methodist Church, 475 Riverside Drive, New York 27, N. Y: Reports, June 1, 1959-May 31, 1960, Rosters, June 1, 1960-May 31, 1961Is this a new challenge? Surely man has within himself the Divine spark, for courageously and indomitably he has hurled himself against the unknown, whether in his first experiments with fire or in his present outreach into the vastness of space.Socially, politically and economically he reaches up to the highest values to which he has been exposed and strives to obtain them for himself, whether or not he has the know-how to use them.Maturing is a painful process. We see signs of immaturity all about us. With all our material advantages, our years of free dom, our Christian heritage, we have not demonstrated the virtues we have proclaimed.Years ago a Chinese teacher said to me: You have in the West a background of generations of Christian leadership which it will take us years to acquire. But time did not wait. Time is running out on our opportunities to help others as well as our selves achieve Christian leadership.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
