The Church And The Hour: Reflections Of A Socialist Churchwoman is a book written by Vida Dutton Scudder and published in 1917. Scudder was an American educator, writer, and social activist who was also a devout Episcopalian. In this book, Scudder offers her reflections on the relationship between the church and socialism, arguing that the church has a responsibility to engage with the pressing social and economic issues of the day.Scudder begins by discussing the historical context of the church's relationship with socialism, tracing the roots of Christian socialism back to the early Christian communities. She then examines the current state of the church and its role in society, arguing that the church has become too focused on individual salvation and has neglected its obligation to work for social justice.Scudder goes on to explore the principles of socialism and their compatibility with Christian values, arguing that socialism is a natural extension of the Christian message of love and compassion. She also addresses common criticisms of socialism, such as the idea that it is inherently atheistic or that it promotes laziness and dependence.Throughout the book, Scudder emphasizes the importance of action and practical engagement with social issues. She calls on the church to take an active role in promoting social justice, advocating for workers' rights, and working to alleviate poverty and inequality.Overall, The Church And The Hour: Reflections Of A Socialist Churchwoman is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between Christianity and socialism, written by a passionate and insightful social activist.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
