Book excerpt: Excerpt from Missionary Education in Home and School Some time ago the following letter was received from the director of an institute for the training of Sunday school teachers in one of our large cities: "You will note that the Training Institute is solely for the purpose of religious education. The question of arranging to have missionary instruction included another year in the curriculum is for the Board of Managers and the Teacher Training and Graded Work Committee to decide." In the mind of this Sunday school worker missionary education and religious education are thought of as two quite distinct processes. In general, this was the attitude of most religious workers ten years ago when the author began an investigation of the relation of missionary education to religious education, and especially its place in the home and the church school. This distinction between religious education and missionary education was so marked and so persistent as to make certain results inevitable. The mission boards recognized more and more that the maintenance of their work depended upon rearing a generation of Christian people in thorough sympathy with missionary work, and with full conviction that its expanding needs must be met thoroughly and efficiently.
