The Christian Pastor And The Working Church is a book written by Washington Gladden and originally published in 1898. The book is a comprehensive guide for Christian pastors on how to effectively lead their congregations towards a more active and productive role in their communities. Gladden emphasizes the importance of a working church, where members are not just passive observers but active participants in community service and outreach. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the role of the pastor, the importance of prayer and worship, the benefits of social and educational programs, and the need for a strong sense of community within the church. Gladden also provides practical advice on how to organize and manage various church activities, such as Sunday school classes, charity drives, and outreach programs. Throughout the book, Gladden stresses the importance of a church that is engaged with the world around it, and encourages pastors to take an active role in social and political issues. He argues that the church has a responsibility to address issues such as poverty, inequality, and injustice, and that pastors should use their platform to advocate for change. Overall, The Christian Pastor And The Working Church is a valuable resource for pastors and church leaders who are looking to create a more engaged and active congregation. Gladden's insights and advice are still relevant today, and his emphasis on the importance of community and social responsibility continues to resonate with readers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autorenporträt
Washington Gladden (1836-1918), congregational minister, lecturer, and author, was a pioneer of the Social Gospel movement. During his long pastorate in Columbus, Ohio, from 1882 to 1918, he was active in municipal and industrial reform, helped to popularize new trends in Biblical criticism, worked to reconcile churches, and fought vigorously against bigotry. His message focused on the Golden Rule, which inspired his over thirty books, led him to battle against the economic and social evils of his time, and informed his own love of justice and life of service.
