Unspoken Sermons
George MacDonald
Book Overview:
George MacDonald was a Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister. In his day he was considered one of the great Victorian authors on par with Dickens, Thackeray, Kipling and the like. His reputation as an author, however, has not fared as well largely because of the ubiquitous and fervent presence of religion throughout his works.
MacDonald's theology, though sprinkled liberally throughout his fairly substantial number of books, is perhaps nowhere more palpable than in Unspoken Sermons. These sermons, though by no means amongst the most popular of MacDonald's work, have had theological impact from their first appearance. That influence is probably most notable in C.S. Lewis who called MacDonald "my master" and of Unspoken Sermons said, "My own debt to this book is almost as great as one man can owe to another."

The last act of our Lord in thus commending his spirit at the close of his life, was only a summing up of what he had been doing all his life. He had been offering this sacrifice, the sacrifice of himself, all the years, and in thus sacrificing he had lived the divine life. Every morning when he went out ere it was day, every evening when he lingered on the night-lapt mountain after his friends were gone, he was offering himself to his Father in the communion of loving words, of high thoughts, of speechless feelings; and, between. . .

I cannot possibly do justice in just a few words to describe how these three volumes have impacted me! For the past 30 years of my life, I have developed a keen fondness for the stories of George MacDonald . . . and have fallen in love with this man who seemed to know the heart of God in such an int
Without qualification, this is the best work of theological and devotional literature I have ever read. I find it wholly Christian and Spiritual in the best and truest senses of those terms. Whenever I want encouragement, chastisement, spiritual food, or something theologically and antiphilosophical
Tomorrow I think I’ll start this book over. There’s no way to put Unspoken Sermons behind you because its truth, beauty, and inspiration will cling to you. The invitation given in this book is to abandon theory, and to instead simply obey God and find Christ. I don’t believe I’ll ever live another d
This book by far is the most brilliant piece of literature I have ever read. Mcdonald’s theoloy intermingled with his love of fiction and poetry produced something truly breathtaking. It surprises me actually, that he has not had as much recognition as he should and it makes me wonder if it is only
I have been meaning to write an updated review of this beautiful and powerful book by the great Scottish writer I so greatly admire, so here goes! I find George MacDonald's theology absolutely fascinating, challenging, and spiritually nourishing. My favorite sermon from this book, is The Child In Th
This isn’t the easiest book to read. The language feels overly complicated. But there are incredible nuggets of truth throughout.
“What I want to say and show is that a man will please God better by believing some things that are not told him, than by confining his faith to those things that are expr
George MacDonald is a fascinating writer whose works cover a wide range from imaginative fantasy stories to deep reflections on the Christian gospel. This series of sermons is the latter and are beneficial for any Christian to work through. MacDonald's unspoken sermons cover a wide range of topics f
