Reading ease score: 88.7 (6th grade). Easy to read.
Transcribed from the 1888 "Joyful News" edition by David Price
"Broken Bread, from an Evangelist's Wallet" by Thomas Champness is a collection of spiritual reflections and exhortations written in the late 19th century. The work presents various thoughts, or "fragments," intended to inspire and revive the faith of its readers, particularly those in Christian ministry or congregational leadership. Each piece reflects on biblical themes, encouraging the reader to engage actively in their spiritual life and advocacy. The opening of this collection sets the tone with a preface that posits the intention of gathering fragmented thoughts for the nourishment of souls seeking spiritual sustenance. Champness introduces themes like "spiritual farming," where he draws analogies between agricultural practices and the cultivation of faith within the church community. He emphasizes the necessity of preparation and modification in spiritual practices to nurture a vibrant church life, urging the audience to inspect the conditions of their congregations. The text suggests self-examination and renewal are pivotal for genuine spiritual revival and the fulfillment of God’s work through His followers. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
