George MacDonald’s collection of spiritual essays, or “sermons.” Besides being a poet, MacDonald was at heart a preacher and remained so all his life. Though he continued to preach upon occasion, the resignation from his pulpit in Arundel in 1853 forced him into writing, with the consequence that henceforth he had to put his sermons into written form, a development for which future generations are enormously grateful.

The first in a series of three:

The Creation in Christ | The Knowing of the Son | The Mirrors of the Lord | The Truth | Freedom | Kingship | Justice | Light | The Discipleship of Jesus | Righteousness | The Final Unmasking | The Inheritance
