CONGREGATIONALISTS PREPARING FOR EVANGELISTIC CAMPAIGN
r - .
Dr. Richard La Rue Swain Heralded as a Philosopher and Scholarly Revivalist Deep Problems of -Religious Experience to Be Discussed.
2
DR. RICHARD LA RUE SWAIN,
who is to conduct an evangelis
tic campaign for the Congrega
tionalists of Portland and vicinity
March 19 to 24, is said to be a new
kind of evangelist.
"He meets the old need in a new
way," say those who have heard him.
. "He is a philosopher-evangelist; he
;. is the scholarly revivalist. He has
the spirit of an evangelist, but his
work is highly specialized. His ser
. mons are specially for those who are
perplexed. His messages are for
those who are in doubt. He doesn't
ask people to hit the trail; he m--vltes
them to ask questions. And his
answers radiate light. Puzzles un
tagle as he talks in his direct, attrac-
tive fashion. It all sounds amazingly
simple, but back of the simplicity is
... years of patient, persevering study
' and the frankest, most straightfor
ward thinking."
"" Dr. Swain is doing something that
..has not been done before. Rector
Dewart of the Trinity Episcopal
church of Winchester, Mass, said:
Dr, Swain is doing the most notable
work that I know of being done
" today. Lyman Abbott says: "Dr.
Swain has the knack of putting the
"profoundest truths , in the simplest
- and most vivid language." For years
he has been the pastor of college
town churches and he has had a large
- experience in dealing with the skep
tic in the colleges. He embodied
- what he learned in tnus wresuun.
with the students' doubts in a re
markable book entitled "What and
Where Is God?" This, in the opinion
of many, was easily the most notable
religious book of last year. The
book has been translated into French
and German, and among churchmen
has been much discussed. It dis-
-cusses all the deep problems of re
ligious experience in a most popular
