Excerpt from The Loss, Decline and Shrinkage in the Cause of Ministerial Education: A Report Approved by the Synod of Illinois and Published by Its AuthorityThe past year has emphasized certain changes which of late have been coming over the cause of Ministerial Education. No cause is more vitally related to the welfare of the Church and in none is a change for the better or for the worse more significant.These changes have not been sudden. For a long time they have been tacitly recognized and of late this recognition has begun to be outspoken, yet it is doubtful if to-day the Church at large realizes how great these changes are. These which we note are such as have taken place within the last four years and this period is selected because it covers the active connection with this dirk of the author of the report. The chairman of our Committee for this year. These changes which must have had their beginning long before this period have developed rapidly and now it is upon us that the burden rests of interpreting correctly their significance. In doing this, the facts are at hand. They are plain and open to one who reads the records of our Presbyteries, the reports of our Board of Education and the minutes of our Assembly. Any mistakes in our interpretation of them can readily be corrected.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
