Description
Excerpt from I Am the Resurrection and the Life: A Book of Funeral Sermons
The volume, which is herewith presented to the Church for such use as it will find it convenient to make of it, is the joint product of a number of authors, all of whom have approached their part in its elabora tion with a greater or less degree of diffidence, and none of whom claims any merit or recognition for its execution. Owing to the joint authorship of this book absolute uniformity of thought and expression and of the exposition and application of Scripture texts will probably be found wanting in it. Besides, a number of the sermons admitted into this book, were written for special occasions arising in the pa rochial work of pastors, and thus bear the stamp pe culiar to such sermons. It was thought advisable to admit them just for this reason, rather than in spite of it. For the same reason two sermons each on the same text were admitted in three instances. ''however, this lack of uniformitv if it is a defect at all, will be compensated for by the diversity of gifts which has been available for this work. In the compilation of the burial service appended at the end Lochner''s Liturgische Monatshefte has been followed.
