"Sermons on National Subjects" is a collection of sermons written by Charles Kingsley, a 19th-century English clergyman, social reformer, and writer. This book exemplifies Kingsley's ongoing dedication to tackling key social and political issues of his time via the lens of his Christian ministry. Some stories are brutal and weird, while others sneak up on you and gradually imbibe you in. Some stories are fascinating and fantastic, while others creep up on you and draw you in. The plot is full of twists and turns that will keep the reader interested. As the titular character is so self-indulgent, readers are forced to keep reading to find out what happens next. Kingsley tackles a wide range of national themes in "Sermons on National Subjects," including social justice, labor reform, the role of the Church in society, and the obligations of individuals and nations. He uses his position of power to advocate for progressive social reform and better working-class circumstances. Another major focus of the sermons is the concept of Christian duty in the face of social problems. Kingsley encourages his audience to participate actively in activities aimed at alleviating poverty, promoting education, and combating social injustice.
