THE CHURCH'S RESPONSIBILITY IN THIS GENERATION

Abstract

Each February the International Council of Religious Education brings together the religious educators of the United States and Canada for a week's meetings at the Stevens Hotel, Chicago. A distinguished scholar and churchman is invited to deliver a series of three lectures before the entire assembled group. This year, Dr. Justin Wroe Nixon is the speaker. Dr. Nixon, for many years minister at the Brick Presbyterian Church in Rochester, New York, is now Professor of Christian Theology and Ethics at Colgate‐Rochester Theological Seminary. He will speak on basic issues facing Christianity and Christian education at the present time. The present article is an introduction to the problems Dr. Nixon will discuss in his addresses before the Council.—Editor.
