Summary "Preaching and Paganism" by Albert Parker Fitch is a work of scholarly theological exploration written in the early 20th century. This text delves into the intersection of contemporary preaching and the influences of humanism and paganism on religious thought and practice. Fitch aims to scrutinize the shifting values in society and the implications these changes have for the practice of ministry in a rapidly evolving world. The opening of this volume presents a thoughtful introduction to the role of the preacher amidst a backdrop of increasing individualism and subjectivism in modern society. Fitch outlines the various challenges facing the Christian ministry, particularly the need to balance traditional religious authority with contemporary values. He emphasizes the importance of understanding one’s generation and the pressing need for a prophetic voice that articulates enduring spiritual truths against the backdrop of a secularizing world that often elevates humanistic values above transcendent ones. The chapter serves as a foundation for subsequent discussions on the nature of preaching and its relationship to both human experience and divine revelation.
