Description

This is a collection of what Stidger calls “Dramatic Book Sermons,” discourses that draw “Christian application[s]” from “books that have a moral or a spiritual lesson in them” (see pp. 28-35 of That God’s House May Be Filled [New York: George H. Doran Company, 1924]). The 14 works discussed here include novels, “narrative poems,” a play, and “books of a more serious social, political or religious nature.”
