Unspoken Sermons
Description
George MacDonald was a Scottish writer who was also a Christian minister. While his writing career focused mostly on fantasy works, he also wrote several theological works, including Unspoken Sermons, which was published in three volumes from 1867–1889.
In it, MacDonald lays out his vision of God. In his view, God is fundamentally a loving father to all humanity, working to purify people from their sin so that they are as good as God himself. A consequence of this is that all people will eventually be saved—which was a controversial teaching in the churches where he preached, making him unpopular with church leaders.
In other sermons, MacDonald deals with more practical topics like riches, prayer, and wrestling with spiritual doubt.
Unspoken Sermons was a profound influence on C. S. Lewis, who said, “My own debt to this book is almost as great as one man can owe to another: and nearly all serious inquirers to whom I have introduced it acknowledge that it has given them great help—sometimes indispensable help toward the very acceptance of the Christian faith.”
