“These sermons are thoughtful, scholarly, finely spiritual. I should not think of calling them great or powerful. But they are good—at times quite suggestive, though in places tolerably commonplace. The author is not merely preacher and rhetorician but, one is pleased to find, a capable spiritual thinker. The style is always clear and good.” James Lindsay.
