All this is true, and it is one of the things that makes the problem almost insoluble. And insoluble it is, I am absolutely convinced unless it is possible to bring new moral life into the soul of these people. This should be the first object of every social reformer, whose work will only last if it is built on the solid foundation of a new birth, to cry "You must be born again."

To get a man soundly saved it is not enough to put on him a pair of new breeches, to give him regular work, or even to give him a University education. These things are all outside a man, and if the inside remains unchanged you have wasted your labour. You must in some way or other graft upon the man's nature a new nature, which has in it the element of the Divine. All that I propose in this book is governed by that principle.

Booth also gives a lasting vision of how to not just accept that bad things happen to down and out, but how to get them back up is s

Brought up a the son of a salvation army officer. Not really religious myself in anyway but thought I'd impress dad by reading it. Must say this mad old crazy looking guy made some fantastic points. He was a real revolutionary who's ideas have stood the test of time. Forget God forget religions just

You do not have to be a Salvationist or religious to appreciate this work of none fiction. The point of the book is not about taking up a bell and manning the Christmas kettle outside a shopping mall. The book was authored by William Booth the founder of the Salvation Army. He explains his theory of
