Selected Sermons of Schleiermacher

About this book

This English selection presents sermons by Friedrich Schleiermacher, the influential German theologian often called the father of modern liberal theology. In Wilson's translation, the sermons treat faith and the Christian life in Schleiermacher's characteristic reflective and feeling-centered manner. The volume is valuable both as preaching and as a primary source for understanding a theologian who reshaped modern Protestant thought.
