SOCIAL ASPECTS OF RELIGION

Bisoop Among His Flock. BY tho RI, Rev
Ethobcrt Talbot, D. D., LII D. Bishop OF
Bethlehem. L. $. A. Published by Harper &
Brothers. New York.
DR.. Talbot In his preface states that he
entertains the hope that the Views to
which he has given expression in this
volume may make q slight contribution to
three desirable ends: First that they
may help some of his flock to love Cod
more earnestly and TO serve Him with
greater deyotion second, that others
may be led 10 be more helpful TO their
brethren and become active workers In
the church: and, third. that all may
derive from them some measure OF real
Joy and happiness in their religious life"
This noted divine, who has devoted so
many years to the service of the church
Is a keen observer and Is very Impressive
In the expression OF his views. His book
is devoted to an interesting discussion OF
religion In its social aspects. There are
chapters ON "Has God Spollen2" "Am
! Responsible" What Shall I Believer"
''What Does Christ Demand?" Christ
and the Church" "The Church and the
Ministry" The Church and the Sacra-
ments. F" Tile Relation OF the Bible to the
