The Editor has found himself repeatedly challenged to explain the meaning of "Organized Congregationalism," and asked by friends to recommend some literature on the subject. The second half of the book is an endeavour to reply to that challenge by gathering together some of the ideas, hopes, aims, and plans which have proved an inspiration to himself in denominational spade-work.

"The pros and cons of the various 'planks in the programme of the Congregational reformers are frankly discussed by Mr Macfadyen, who, in this volume, reveals the possession of a statesmanlike grasp alike of principle and detail. He is

persuasive as advocate and damaging as critic, but he seems ever possessed by an earnest and sincere desire to see organised Congregationalism adapted to meet its new needs and fresh responsibilities."-Christian World.

"There is so much food for thought in the sermons that we do not wonder at such a large circulation."-London Quarterly Review.

"The book is greatly enriched by the poetical quotations which conclude most of the sermons. Many of these are unfamiliar, and most of them are very beautiful and full of spiritual suggestion." -Examiner.
