(John Henry) Parochial and Plain Sermons, Vol. VIII (of 8) E-text prepared by Al Haines "Parochial and Plain Sermons, Vol. VIII" by John Henry Newman is a collection of religious discourses written in the late 19th century. The volume comprises sermons that explore various aspects of Christian faith and practice, focusing on themes such as reverence in worship, divine calls, trials of faith, and the importance of obedience to God's commands. The sermons draw heavily from biblical narratives to illustrate moral and spiritual lessons, emphasizing the significance of maintaining a reverent and faithful relationship with God. The opening of this volume introduces the first sermon, which reflects on the importance of reverence in worship through the biblical example of Samuel, a child ministering before the Lord. Newman emphasizes that true reverence enhances one's relationship with the divine, enabling a deeper appreciation of sacred elements. He contrasts Samuel's humility and obedience to God's calling with the irreverence exhibited by individuals who do not approach God with the respect due to Him. The sermon serves as a call to believers to cultivate a spirit of humility and awe in their worship, setting a tone for the themes discussed throughout the collection.
