Produktbeschreibung
Recreation And The Church is a book written by Herbert Wright Gates and originally published in 1917. The book explores the role of recreation in the Christian church and argues that leisure activities can be a positive force for spiritual growth and community building. Gates draws on examples from history and contemporary society to make his case, and he discusses various forms of recreation, including sports, games, music, and drama. He also addresses potential concerns and objections to the idea of recreation within the church, such as the fear that it could distract from more serious spiritual pursuits. Throughout the book, Gates emphasizes the importance of balancing work and play, and he suggests that recreation can help people connect with God and with one another in meaningful ways. Overall, Recreation And The Church offers a thought-provoking perspective on the relationship between leisure and faith, and it remains relevant to contemporary discussions about the role of recreation in religious communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
