Robert H. Ellison
The User Guide for the Library of Appalachian Preaching is a Google Sheet that can be searched, sorted, and downloaded for offline use.
This part of the Guide provides information about Chrisman's sermons. It includes the title, scripture text, date and place the sermon was delivered (if known), and so on. This information is available in the master list of sermons as well.

Ten-Minute Sermons
Lewis Herbert Chrisman
As Chrisman notes in the Preface, the pulpit was not his primary focus, as his “routine duties are those of the teacher rather than the preacher.” He did, however, have “a high interest in the form and content of sermons,” which is reflected in the 77 short pieces in this volume. Some had been previously published in The Homiletic Review, while others had not “hitherto appeared in print.”
Chrisman taught English at German Wallace College (now
Baldwin Wallace University) in Berea, Ohio and
West Virginia Wesleyan College in Buckhannon. His books on literary, historical and religious topics include
The English of the Pulpit (New York: George H. Doran Company, 1926);
John Ruskin, Preacher, and Other Essays (New York: The Abingdon Press, 1921); and
Selections from the Letters and Speeches of Abraham Lincoln (Boston: D. C. Heath and Company, 1912).
