An Episcopal priest examines the basic demands and responsibilities of Christian life.

"To say that this book set me wondering why there are so few like it may seem a left-handed compliment, but it is far from being one. Nearly everything that is very well done looks easy to do, especially if you have never tried it yourself. And if it is also very well worth doing, we naturally ask why more people do not at any rate attempt it. Actually, books like this are rare. We have plenty of religious literature: books of devotion, controversies, apologetics, Christian reflections on "the present situation," Drives, Recalls, Appeals, and New Approaches. But except on a far lower level, both literary and theological, than Dr. Farrer's, the unabashedly homiletic - undisguised instruction and exhortation - is not common. Dr. Farrer offers it. He comes before us in this book not as a missioner, nor a journalist, nor a philosopher, but simply as a priest." (from the preface by C.S. Lewis)
