The Individual And The Social Gospel (1914)

By Shailer Mathews

Book Overview

""The Individual and the Social Gospel"" is a book written by Shailer Mathews in 1914. It explores the relationship between the individual and the social gospel, a movement that emerged in the late 19th century and sought to apply Christian principles to social problems. Mathews argues that the social gospel is not a rejection of individualism but rather a necessary extension of it. He believes that individuals must work together to create a just society and that this is in line with the teachings of Christ. Mathews also discusses the role of the church in promoting social justice and the need for Christians to be actively engaged in the world around them. Overall, ""The Individual and the Social Gospel"" is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between individualism and social responsibility in the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
