The Challenge of the Present Crisis is a book written by Harry Emerson Fosdick in 1917. The book is a collection of sermons that Fosdick delivered during the First World War. The sermons deal with the challenges that the world was facing during the war, such as the need for peace, justice, and unity. Fosdick argues that the war is not just a conflict between nations, but a crisis of civilization that requires a spiritual response. He calls on people of all faiths to come together and work towards a common goal of peace and justice. The book also deals with the role of religion in the modern world and the need for a new understanding of faith that is relevant to the challenges of the present day. Fosdick’s writing is characterized by his eloquent and passionate style, which makes the book a compelling read even today. Overall, The Challenge of the Present Crisis is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that offers a unique perspective on the challenges of the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
