Description

Sermons of Sympathy is a collection of sermons written by John Page Hopps and originally published in 1884. Hopps was a prominent English Unitarian minister who preached extensively on social justice issues, particularly poverty and the plight of the working class. The sermons in this book are focused on the theme of sympathy, which Hopps believed was a crucial element in building a just and compassionate society. The sermons cover a wide range of topics, including the importance of empathy and compassion, the need for social reform, and the role of religion in promoting social justice. Hopps draws on a variety of sources, including biblical stories and contemporary social commentary, to illustrate his points and inspire his readers. Despite being written over a century ago, the messages in Sermons of Sympathy remain relevant today. Hopps' call for empathy and compassion in the face of social injustice is still a pressing issue, and his insights into the role of religion in promoting social change continue to resonate with readers of all backgrounds. This book is an important historical document and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of social justice movements or the role of religion in promoting social change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
