Church and Empire: A Series of Essays on the Responsibilities of Empire (1908)

""Church and Empire"" is a collection of essays written by John Henry Joshua Ellison in 1908. The book explores the relationship between the Church and the British Empire during the height of British imperialism. Ellison argues that the Church has a responsibility to guide the Empire in its actions and to promote Christian values in its governance. He also discusses the role of missionaries in spreading Christianity to the colonies and the importance of education in promoting Christian values. Additionally, Ellison addresses the ethical issues surrounding imperialism, such as the treatment of indigenous peoples and the exploitation of resources. Overall, ""Church and Empire"" offers a thought-provoking examination of the responsibilities of the British Empire and the Church during a time of great change and upheaval.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
