DR. HASTINGS says
: There is, I believe, a widespread and earnest desire on the part of teachers of the Bible to do more than has lately been done for the teaching of Christian doctrine. The complaint that doctrine is dry is due to the way it is taught, even more than to the “spirit of the age.” Anything is dry that is disorderly or unreal. In those volumes the various Doctrines are presented in an orderly sequence, and contact with reality is maintained at every step by means of illustration or example.
The Doctrines dealt with are Prayer, Faith, Peace.
