Synopsis

A concise collection of devotional essays that explore character, faith, and the choices that shape a life.

These pages shed light on early piety, moral risk, and the reasons people resist or embrace spiritual truth.

The book presents short, sermon‑like reflections drawn from biblical stories. It uses vivid scenes to discuss how personal decisions, family example, and public pressures affect our devotion to God and the path of the soul.
  • Learn how early faith can set a life on a hopeful course.
  • See how danger and temptation test character in everyday moments.
  • Consider why people oppose or support the gospel in different eras.
  • Reflect on how science, culture, and power influence belief and practice.
Ideal for readers of devotional scripture study and for anyone seeking practical, faith‑oriented insights from biblical narratives.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Obscure Characters and Minor Lights of Scripture

Many of the following scripture sketches have already appeared in the pages of the " Homiletic Magazine," and have drawn forth such kindly expressions of appreciation, and of desire for their re-publication, that they, with others, are now sent forth in this distinct form.

It is the wish of the author that these sketches may not only prove suggestive to preachers and teachers, but interesting to those who may have to spend days of dreary detention from the house of God.

Young people also may possibly welcome a book that it is hoped will lead them to find a still greater attractiveness in the Sacred Word, - that treasury in which are hidden so many "things new and old."
