In accordance with this modern spirit, two agencies which have formerly issued home mission text-books have united this year in publishing one book. These agencies are the Council of Women for Home Missions and the Missionary Education Movement, which, as is well known, represents the interests of the Home Missions Council. The theme of this book is one which is giving great concern to our national government and to all those agencies and people who realize the necessity of quickened effort toward national unity. It is an especially important theme at this time, when America occupies so conspicuous a place in world influence and power, while within her own borders press social problems of largest magnitude. One language, one flag is much but it is not enough for the highest national unity and expression. There must be such an appreciation of and participation in the spirit of America as shall release the largest spiritual values for the betterment of the social order in the United States, create a compelling national conscience capable of making this country fine and strong in self-control, and give it exalted conceptions and standards of human relationships. Only through the contagion of Christian thinking and living can this be accomplished. The church of Christ must assume a dominant place in this effort and address itself definitely with profound earnestness and purpose to this mighty task. It is with these deep convictions concerning the relation of the church to Americanization that Christian Americanization ;J Task for the Churches is sent forth. PUBUCAT iON CoMMITTS

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the meaning of Americanization as it relates to assimilation, a topic that has gained prominence in recent times. The author believes that Americanization is not dependent on the repudiation of one's heritage but instead should be viewed as a spiritual process guided by democratic principles. While acknowledging the historic challenges and complexities of Americanization, the author emphasizes America's unique opportunity to practice unity amid diversity. This book contributes to a broader understanding of the complexities of Americanization and its profound significance for a nation grappling with questions of national unity in a rapidly changing world.
