Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ministry in Rural Communities I do not believe that the institutional church is practicable, if it is desirable, in most country districts, at least under present conditions. It is better to draw a pretty clear line between the interests of the church and the interests of the town, and to take up each kind of work independently of every other kind. Let each interest have its own special organization. But we do need somebody to lead in such work as the Y. M. C. A. Is doing in athletics, lectures, classes, and in directing the energies of the young into wholesome channels. The man who is fitted for this work will find enough to do. In many of our rural communities the minister is often the only educated man of leisure, the only man competent to lead; and in such cases the more he really knows about all sorts of things, the better it is for the community, if he has tact enough to use what he knows in practical and judicious ways.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural Church: Serving the Community There is a growing conviction in the minds of Christian leaders to-day that the country church, to succeed as an integral part of the Rural Life Movement, must be organized and directed on the basis of service to the whole community. In the training of ministers and rural leaders in other professions this fact is being emphasized by schools and colleges of agriculture, denominational colleges and theological seminaries. It is assumed by the writer that the chief function of the church is to acquaint the people with God, and teach them the way of God as revealed in his word and works, and train them in Christian service. The point of emphasis, therefore, is that of service for the community and the spiritualizing of all the necessary and life-giving activities of the people of the countryside. To fulfill this function the country church must be more than a preaching place for an absentee minister; it must be a social center for the life of the community as a whole, for all the people in some sense at least through its program of work as well as worship.

What are the best courses of Bible study for working farmers? IS the present doctrinal training obsolete? Does the philosophy and theology taught in colleges and seminaries unfit men for rural service by its individualism? By teaching about exceptional instances, mira cles, wonders, heroism and saints, instead of teaching obedience to law, average cases, standards of conduct, typical men, practicable, economical and ethical levels? Is the seminary training for rural pastors unsuited by its traditions, viz., a prayer for rain in a region watered by irrigation? Does social efficiency suffer through the teach ing of sectarian doctrines? What course of seminary training would fit men for rural service? Should the seminary or the agricultural col lege train men for service in the country? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural Problem of the ChurchThe main point I wish to make to-day is that the so-called Rural Problem is not just another, but is the problem of our church for the present day. It is practically the only question before us which has a right to be called a problem; for the satisfactory settlement of this question will carry with it, to a large extent, the settlement of all questions, whether in church or state. No other question so well deserves the careful study and thought of this Presbytery, and my'one regret about to day's conference is that we have not some one in my place, with the exact knowledge of an expert, and the voice of a prophet, to set before us the cause of the rural dweller and convince us of the opportunity and danger of the time. If any proof of the importance of the rural problem were re quired, it is furnished by the fact that a National Conference on the subject was held in Columbus, Ohio, last December, attended by delegates from all parts of the United States, and opened by President Wilson in person. Ex-president Roose velt said some time ago that with the single exception of the conservation of our natural resources, which underlies the problem of rural life, there is no other material question of greater importance now before the American people. What is true of'the United States is-true of Canada. This is our first and greatest domestic problem, overlapping or including practically all others. It is, of course, nothing new in the world; exploitation of rural populations has been a primarycause of national instability since the beginning of history. Nor is the question one that concerns farmers and country ministers alone. The city is as much concerned in the social welfare of the rural population as are country people them selves. The city is in fact largely a product of the country. Genius is rarely born in the city, and probably nine-tenths of the nation's influential leaders come from the farm. I suspect that the city derives from the country half its brains, two thirds of its wealth and three-quarters of its character.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Social Survey for Rural Communities: A Practical Scheme for the Investigation of the Structure, Problems, and Possibilities of Rural, Village and Other Communities From the Point of View of the Church and Its Work A true questionaire is the guide not only to its own use, but to the community program of service to which it leads. Again, it may be said, try it and see. The questionaire has been pre pared with the larger, practical result especially in view. The purpose of a social survey is not to produce statistics, but to produce better communities. While the survey is in progress, and after, it is urgently recommended that extensive and painstaking use be made of a bibliography of printed helps for country pastors. By the union Of the field and the library studies, aided by constant prayer and earnest personal service, the investigator will find a place in the very heart of the rural life movement which shall realize to him that the community structure in which he builds is the world, and of which the completed temple is heaven.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church in Rural Community Living in the South: Report of the Church Committee, Second Southern Rural Life Conference The first general work conference of the Southern Rural Life Council was held in 1943. The report of the conference was published under the title: The School and the Changing Pattern of Country Life. The second general work confer ence of the Council was held in 1946. Instead of publishing all of the committee reports of 1946 in a single volume as was done after the first conference, each committee report is being published separately. Separate publications should a'rd wide circulation and usability of the reports. It is to be hoped, however, that separate publications will not hinder the use of all the reports since one of the chief needs of community development is an integration of efforts of all inter ests and groups. It is fitting that the first of the five committee reports to be published deals with the church and rural community living in the South. The church, the institution most com mon to rural neighborhoods and communities, has great responsibility and potential inﬂuence. The quality of the inﬂuence of the rural church, be it positive or negative, unifying or divisive, is a force to be reckoned with. The quality of living to be found in rural communities depends in no small degree upon the quality of the ministry and the program of the local church. This report attempts to pre sent the need for a philosophy of rural life; the responsibility of the rural church in a world of secular materialism; the function of the church; what the church is doing to improve the quality of living; barriers experienced by church leader ship; what church leadership can do to improve community living; and outstanding illustrations of community co operation. The interest and financial assistance of the General Edu cation Board made possible the establishment of the Southern Rural Life Council and the publication of this report.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Messages of the Men and Religion Movement, Vol. 6: The Rural Church Before attempting to state the prevailing con ditions among rural churches and communities, it should be said that there are large areas in the United States in which rural churches thrive, and country people prosper. Broadly speak ing, they are classified under the statement by an eastern professor of economics: There are three classes of successful American farmers. In the order Of their success they are, the Mor mons, the Scotch Presbyterians, and the Pennsyl vania Germans. These farmers have success ful country churches. Their rural religious or ganizations have resisted the recent economic changes, which have SO adversely affected other rural populations. And the organization of their communities is religious. Their churches are their social machinery for success in farming. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from By-Products of the Rural Sunday School Increasing attention is being given to the Sunday school. This is due to the recognition that it has become the most important agency in the religious instruction of our youth. We do not refer to the Sunday school apart from the Church, but to the Church working through the Sunday school. We are beginning to realize that In America both the Church and the nation must depend largely upon the Sunday school for the Christian instruction of our boys and girls, as well as for the Bible study of our adults. Earnest efforts are being made to render our Sunday schools more efficient, so that better and more abundant results may be obtained from the work done in them. Consideration, however, has thus far been given for the most part to the larger schools in our towns and cities. It is well for us, therefore, to have our attention directed to the smaller rural schools. The majority of our Sunday schools are of this character. In many cases these schools are taking the place of churches in scattered communities. A church could not be supported, but a Sunday school can be carried on by the people themselves, and may become the center of the religious life of the neighborhood.
