Description:At the back of his mind in all his pulpit preparation he seemed to be ever asking the question, "What is there for my people to live on?" It was for that reason that he never found himself able to use a big word or a technical term which the simplest in his audience might stumble over. His serving on the staff of the New English Dictionary at Oxford was an experience and education which gave him a sense of the fitness of words and a command of the English language he could never have acquired otherwise. After fifteen months in Oxford he returned to Glasgow, where he became an assistant to Alexander Whyte of whom Morrison had the following to say, "Think what it must have meant to me, a shy, raw beginner, to live for over a year in close intimacy with such a big soul. His devotion to duty, his dogged adherence to his own work, his mapped out days, his intense love of all good literature, his humility, his amazing appreciation of the most commonplace service -- these things were my school of pastoral theology." He bore always in mind the maxim of Dr. Whyte: "Mind your books and Satan cannot touch you."His first book of sermons, "Flood Tide", was published while he was at Dundee. Many other books of his sermons were published during his lifetime and a few were published after his death. These sermons are still just as fresh and enlightening in the 21th Century as when they were first written and preached at the close of the 19th and the opening of the 20th CenturyMorrison began his ministry at Wellington Church, Glasgow, in 1902 remaining there until his death in 1928.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
