Hopes For English Religion is a book written by John Neville Figgis, first published in 1919. The book explores the author's vision for the future of religion in England, in the aftermath of World War I. Figgis was a prominent theologian and historian, and his book reflects his deep concern for the state of the Church of England and the role of religion in society.The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Figgis examines the historical roots of English religion, tracing its development from the early Christian church to the present day. He argues that the Church of England has lost touch with its original mission and must rediscover its spiritual purpose if it is to remain relevant in the modern world.In the second part, Figgis discusses the challenges facing English religion in the aftermath of the war. He argues that the war has shattered the old certainties and created a sense of disillusionment and despair. Figgis believes that religion has a vital role to play in rebuilding society and restoring hope to the people.Finally, in the third part, Figgis outlines his vision for the future of English religion. He calls for a new spiritual awakening, a return to the fundamental principles of Christianity, and a reinvigoration of the Church of England. He also advocates for greater cooperation between different religious groups and a more inclusive approach to spirituality.Overall, Hopes For English Religion is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a compelling vision for the future of religion in England. Figgis's ideas are still relevant today, and the book remains an important contribution to the ongoing debate about the role of religion in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
