Description - Discipline And Other Sermons by Charles Kingsley
A calling that still speaks to modern lives: discipline, virtue, and the courage to care for others, voiced with clarity and compassion. Discipline And Other Sermons gathers Charles Kingsley's potent sermon collection into one restored volume. These religious essays illuminate Victorian theology with a humane heart, pairing ethical instruction with sharp social insight. Kingsley speaks to both clergy and lay readers, weaving Christian doctrine into daily life, urging discipline and benevolence as practical paths to a better society. In this volume, readers encounter a clear, accessible voice that balances Victorian England's religious seriousness with forward-thinking reform. The sermons rise from a british anglican setting to engage broader questions of social justice, education, charity, and moral responsibility. Influenced by thinkers like Thomas Carlyle, Kingsley's sermons press the reader toward action-from private virtue to public reform-without sacrificing contemplative warmth or spiritual clarity. The work stands as a significant marker in victorian religious writings, offering a window into religious culture, social concerns, and literary rhetoric of the era. This is more than a reprint. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, the volume is restored for today's and future generations. It is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, valued by seasoned collectors and curious readers alike for its enduring temper and historical texture. A fruitful read for anyone exploring sermon collection traditions, religious essays, or the rich tapestry of Victorian England.
