Prophets of the Soul (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162610313)

Prophets of the Soul is a book written by Joseph M. M. Gray that explores the spiritual and metaphysical dimensions of human existence. The book delves into the concept of the soul and its role in shaping our lives, as well as the ways in which we can connect with and nurture this essential aspect of ourselves. Drawing on a wide range of spiritual traditions and philosophical perspectives, Gray offers insights and guidance for those seeking to deepen their spiritual practice and connect with their innermost selves. He also explores the role of prophets and other spiritual leaders throughout history, and how their teachings can inspire us to live more meaningful and fulfilling lives. Prophets of the Soul is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that offers a fresh perspective on spirituality and the human experience.The biographical chapters presented in this book are not intended to be complete either as delineations of character or expositions of theology. But two aspects of the contemporary scene would appear to excuse the publication of the volume. The First is that this generation does not hold the pulpit in the high esteem with which in other times it was regarded. The second aspect of contemporary life is that of the conflict between those who want religion more liberalized and those who, disillusioned by the apparent bankruptcy of liberalism in politics and theology alike. Found within are sketches on the following: Those Mathers and the Puritan Commonwealth; Jonathan Edwards; George Whitefield; Methodist Itinerants; William Ellery Channing; Horace Bushnell; Phillips Brooks; George A. Gordon; Washington Gladden.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
