Believing

Zusatztext

This volume of sermons is organized according to the Apostles' Creed, which expresses Davies's own solid faith as a Christian believer. But the sermons themselves apply to a variety of situations from history, psychology, and lore. Davies uses the intellect to touch and console the heart.
