Under the title of A Sermon For To-day these short essays, on the art of every-day living in the light of eternal life, were published by The Chicago Sunday Tribune , through a series of years, and were regularly printed in the Sunday editions of a group of the great dailies. The short sentences were also published with the Sermons under the head of Sentence Sermons. The courtesy of The Chicago Daily Tribune in permitting the publication of these sermons, with such changes as have seemed best, is gratefully acknowledged.
I. THE HIGHER LEVELS The Real and the Ideal—The Bread of Life—Life's Unvarying Values.
II. INVISIBLE ALLIES More than a Fighting Chance—The Unseen Hand—The One in the Midst.
III. THE SOVEREIGNTY OF SERVICE Self and Service—My Soul or My Service?—The Satisfaction of Service.
