Excerpt from Visions: Sunday Morning Sermons at St. Bartholomew's, New YorkThe sermons in this volume were not delivered with any reference to the subsequent publication of them, and the only audience which the preacher had in mind when he preached them was the audience immediately before him. This will explain, if it does not excuse a redundancy and fragmentariness of style, which if not essential to direct discourse, are not incompatible with it, but which, in the preparation of an essay to be "harvested with the quiet eye" would naturally be avoided. This, however, is not a book of essays, but of sermons, or rather of the reports of sermons which were delivered originally without manuscript, and which are here printed, with a few verbal exceptions, precisely as they were preached. Some persons who heard them, and who thought that they were helped by them, have expressed the desire that they might be published, and that is why they are now put forth in this more permanent form.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
