"Painted Windows: Studies in Religious Personality" by Harold Begbie is a collection of studies that delve into the lives and personalities of notable religious figures in early 20th-century England. Written during the early 1920s, it explores the complexities of modern Christianity and its leaders, scrutinizing how their personalities and philosophies affect the faith and moral authority of the Church in contemporary society. The opening of the work sets the stage for the examination of English religious leaders, starting with a foreword by Professor Kirsopp Lake. It discusses the waning influence of the Church and reflects on how modernity has challenged traditional Christian beliefs, resulting in a crisis of moral leadership. Lake suggests that while contemporary religious leaders are sincere and earnest, they seem unable to convey a unifying and compelling message to a society increasingly indifferent to dogma. The beginning emphasizes the stark contrast between past certainties and present doubts, suggesting a need for reformation within the Church that resonates with modern principles of thought and morality.
