  REVERENCE
  FOR
  LIFE
  by Albert Schweitzer
  Foreword by D. Elton Trueblood
  "To me preaching was a necessity of my
  being. I felt it as something wonderful
  that
  I was allowed
  to address
  a con-
  gregation
  every
  Sunday
  about
  the
  deepest
  questions
  of
  life."
  In
  these
  words
  Albert
  Schweitzer,
  humanita-
  rian and Nobel Peace Prize winner, re-
  called his early, formative ministry at
  the Church of St. Nicolai in Strasbourg,
  where he delivered these sermons.
  Dr. Schweitzer occasionally remarked
  that he preached not as a theologian
  but
  as a layman. With extraordinary
  penetration, he grapples with the age-
  less questions of the human heart—the
  purpose of life, the meaning of death,
  the uses of suffering. While his basic
  concern
  is with the souls of his listen-
  ers, a proximity and relationship with
  Jesus Christ glows through his words
  like a hidden
  fire.
