About This Book

The author argues that the world's sickness is spiritual and proposes Christian love and moral renewal as the remedy. Through a series of essays he diagnoses postwar complacency, the persistence of social injustices and the hypocrisy of religious institutions, links strikes and war as symptoms of deeper moral failure, and urges practical reform rooted in love and sacrificial service. He critiques the commercialization of worship, warns against the perils of crowd mentality, and outlines paths toward peace, deliverance, and societal renewal, concluding with an appeal to mobilize faith into public action for social justice and communal healing.

STAND UP, YE DEAD

3rd Edition, 3s. 6d. net.

'It is a book that shakes the heart.... We know no man who has seen into the heart and verity of things more clearly, "Awake thou that sleepest...." In the hands of a master in Israel the same thrilling, disturbing cry will wake men from their apathy and complacency.'—The British Weekly.

'One of our prophetic voices is Norman Maclean.... Some people do not know how dead they are, and others do not know how much life there is in the apparently dead. Let both sorts read this book and awake.... A terrible chapter is called "The Slum in the Man."'—Public Opinion.

'Unless you have the heart of a Kaiser it must thrill you through and through.'—From Defeat or Victory, by ABTHUR MEE and J. STUART HOLDEN.

'There are few writers in whom sympathetic insight and uncompromising moral judgment, mystic intuition and prophetic fire, are so perfectly blended.'—The Christian.
