Title: The Unlighted Lustre
Subtitle: Addresses From A Glasgow Pulpit
Description: **Dr. Morrison's sermons throb with vitality.** They are unconventional in the best sense - combining imagination, culture, and style with spiritual insight, intense sympathy, and the power of direct appeal. There is a brightness and deftness of touch that makes every page not merely readable, but uncommonly interesting and extremely practical. Dr. Morrison had a genius for laying hold of a truth, holding it up in many lights until it revealed something of its beauty, and then aptly applying that truth to the common life of quite ordinary men. These are sermons of the very best kind. All of them can be read with interest, delight, and proﬁt. **George Herbert Morrison (1866-1928**) served as **pastor of Wellington United Free Church in Glasgow, Scotland, from 1902 until his death.** An unusual combination of pastor and preacher, Dr. Morrison spoke pointedly to all classes of people, young and old. After completing university studies Morrison **assisted Sir James Murray at Oxford in the preparation of the New English Dictionary**. There he felt the call to preach. Upon graduation from Free Church College he was chosen to be **assistant to the famous Alexander Whyte at Free St. George's in Edinburgh**. He remained there only one year but Whyte's inﬂuence on Morrison's preaching is very evident. Prior to his charge at Wellington Dr. Morrison served churches in Thurso and Dundee. The **SIX BOOKS** in this series are: **SUN-RISE: Addresses from a City Pulpit**, **MORNING SERMONS**, **FLOOD-TIDE: Sunday Evenings in a City Pulpit**, **THE WIND ON THE HEATH : Sunday Evening Addresses from a Glasgow Pulpit**, **HIGHWAYS OF THE HEART : A Series of Addresses**, **THE UNLIGHTED LUSTRE: Addresses from a Glasgow Pulpit**.
