Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the People's Play This book is written for the purpose of showing the importance of play in the life of individuals and the community and the relation of the church to the question, especially in its democratic aspects. I feel that much of what I have said is familiar to those interested in the play and recreation movements. My interest in the philosophy of play and the various theories advanced is incidental to my main purpose. It has not been my intention to break new ground so much as to bring facts to the attention of the churches and church people and point out tendencies that are well known; and by presenting a constructive program, if possible, help the churches to meet the new and pressing problems. I have used quotations freely and have tried to give credit to writers and investigators. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Children of Israel by : Tracy D. Mygatt
Download or read book Children of Israel written by Tracy D. Mygatt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-19 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children of Israel: A Play in Three Acts Religious Drama is quickening the Spiritual life Of communi ties to-day as it did in the early days of the Church. The revival Of this form of drama at the close of the World War was sug gested by the Drama League of America as a means of carrying over into everyday life the awakened conscience of the people. A Religious Drama Committee was called by the League to dis cuss the subject in the broadest use of the term, the aim being, to secure plays of Biblical and ethical value, plays capable of stimulating high ideals. As the supply of such material was inadequate the League held a religious drama prize competition to secure worth while plays, and to arouse interest in the subject. The result was satisfactory and valuable material was gained. Selected plays from this competition are to appear in a Drama League Series, Children Of Israel, the title of this volume, being one of the series. Churches eagerly adopted the League's idea of utilizing drama in church work, realizing that the Church alone does not Offer the balanced recreation that people crave, and that the art of the drama appealing to the triple nature of man is Of inestimable value in supplying this need. The movement has grown so rap idly that it will be necessary to correlate the work of the Drama League, various churches and organizations working in the field of religious drama, that effort may not be duplicated and that the high ideals for which the League stands may be maintained.

Book Synopsis A First Series of Church Songs (Classic Reprint) by : Sabine Baring-Gould
Download or read book A First Series of Church Songs (Classic Reprint) written by Sabine Baring-Gould and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A First Series of Church Songs A want has been long felt for a collection of Church songs to supplement the Hymn Book - songs with a distinctly Church and religious tendency, without being hymns. From the workshop, the kitchen, and the stable, we hear the most sacred words warbled lightly, because they have become familiar in church or chapel wedded to taking tunes. The English people, for lack of national "Volkslieder" such as the Germans possess, have become a hymn-singing people; and the hymn is sung regardless of the character of the words, because the people are cheerful and want to sing. Of late years Messrs. Sankey and Moody, and, later still, the "Salvation Army," have introduced religious songs which have at once become favourites, because the airs have been secular, and, in some cases, the words rollicking. The result has been a distinct lowering of the reverence of the people for holy things and holy words. Sacred aspirations and names, at which angels and devils bow, are trolled out or roared to music-hall tunes, sometimes by tipsy men, and often without thought. The tendency of these songs is not only to irreverence and profanity, but also to encourage heretical views of the scheme of Salvation. Justification is upheld as a sentimental outgush of excited hysteria, not as the gradual growth of a spiritual life; and this mischievous teaching poisons the sources of the moral conscience. In compiling the collection now presented to Churchmen, the authors have done their best to insist cm definite truth, and to make the song a vehicle for impressing some facts necessary to salvation on the minds of those who sing them. They have aimed especially at giving definite expressions to the doctrine of "the Catholic Church," a doctrine which is presupposed, rather than insisted on, in our hymnals. The Church's year brings the great facts of Our Lord's life and the event of Pentecost before people's minds, and the hymns accentuate the lessons of the gospels for the Festivals. But there is no great feast of the "Holy Catholic Church" at which this verity of the faith is insisted on; whence the need of supplementing the hymnal with Church songs teaching this doctrine, to be used at mission services, social gatherings, and in processions. In an age of flux in religious belief, and disintegration, social, political, moral and religious, we cannot sufficiently impress on the minds of Christians the fact of the unity of the Church Catholic in all ages and in all places, and of her being the one immutable guardian of the truth, moral and religious, amidst the general change and upheaval, and disturbance of traditional beliefs. A hymn should have its distinct character, be objective, and void of mawkish sentiment. It should be addressed to God, and not to the human soul, nor should it be an oblique sermon. It is an act of worship and praise. But a sacred song need not be so restricted; thus, such songs as "By the gate they meet us," "Sinner, come to Jesus," "We won't give up the Bible," "Nearer home," and the like are unsuitable for public worship, but they are tolerable at the religious class, in the home circle on a Sunday evening, and nor schools. The songs in this collection belong to this category: they are adapted both as to words and tunes for use outside the church as a supplement to the Hymnal. Just thirty years ago, the writer of this introduction began a similar collection, and laid it aside. He saw then that there was a need for such a book, but the demand had not come, so the time was not ripe for its production. In selecting the melodies rather a wide field has been travelled over. Some that may not appear of much merit when tried over on the piano are taken because experience has proved them to be good workable tunes when sung by a body of voices. The harmonies throughout have been composed, re-written, or revised by the Rev. H. Fleetwood She

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The People's Bible, Vol. 26: Discourses Upon Holy Scripture [Note. - "The Epistle to the Romans was addressed to the Christians residing in the metropolis of that great empire, whose dominion then extended over almost the whole known world. "At what time or by whom the Gospel was first preached in the Imperial City is unknown. That it was at an early period may be inferred from the circumstance that, when Paul wrote this Epistle, the faith of the Roman Christians 'was spoken of throughout the whole world' (chap. i. 8). It is probable that some of those 'strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, ' who were present at Jerusalem on the great day of Pentecost, Acts ii. 10 carried back to that city the knowledge of the Gospel. And it is not improbable, also, considering the constant intercourse between Rome and the provinces, that some of the numerous converts to Christianity in Judaea, Asia Minor, and Greece, might soon have found their way to the capital. That some of the persons concerned in the establishment of the Church of Rome (two of whom Paul mentions as having been converted earlier than himself) were Paula's particular friends, with whom be had met while preaching in Asia and in Greece is evident from the form of the salutations in chap. xvi. 3-16. "The date of this Epistle is very precisely fixed by the following facts. Paul had not yet been to Rome (i. 11, 13, 15).He was intending to visit it, after first visiting Jerusalem (xv. 23-28), and this was his purpose during his three months residence at Corinth, Acts xix. 21. He was about to carry a collection from Macedonia and Achaia to Jerusalem (xv. 26, 31): and this he did carry from Corinth to Jerusalem at the close of his visit, Acts xxiv. 17. When he wrote the Epistle, Timothy, Sosipater, Gaius, and Erastus were with him (xvi. 21, 23). Gaius was his host, and resided at Corinth, 1 Cor. i. 14. Erastus was himself a Corinthian, and had been sent shortly before from Ephesus with Timothy on their way through Corinth to Macedonia, Acts xix. 22: 1 Cor. xvi. 10 11; and the first three are expressly mentioned in Acts xx. 4 as being with Paul at Corinth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Parish Choir, or Church Music Book, 1849, Vol. 3 In other words, the originators of the Parish Choir did not desire to introduce fine, enchanting, dramatic music, such as might be executed by professionals from the concert-room or theatre, who draw their curtain, sing their florid anthem, and retire from the church as soon as their performance is over; nor yet to fill the churches with irreverent crowds of listeners. Their desire was to see the churches filled with devout crowds of worshippers, and to provide and make popular 3. System of ecclesiastical music, such as the humblest could join in, while it should be calculated, not for the mere amusement of man, but for the worship of God. This then, in short, was our object to find out, publish, popularize, explain, and recommend the adoption of that system of music, which should be most suited to the genius of the. English Prayer Book, and most in accordance with the entire system of the Reformed English Church. And as on the very face of the Prayer Book it is evident that our service is not a mere vicarious intercession to be performed by priest, or by priest and parish-clerk, or quire; that the people are not meant to sit as silent listeners, but themselves to join vocally, openly, and audibly, or even loudly in the devotions of the Church, so it is evident that no system of ecclesiastical music can be in accordance with the genius of the English Church, which does not recognize this duty and this right of the laity throughout the entire service; and which does not provide means whereby their united audible worship may be celebrated with one voice, with decency and reverence.
