Harold Bell Wright’s timeless tale of a young minister and his wayward flock—in a new edition edited by an acclaimed Christian author. First published in 1909, The Calling of Dan Matthews tells the story of a young minister’s coming of age and the challenges he faces as he doggedly seeks to answer God’s call. Growing up in the Ozark Mountains, Dan Matthews is deeply devoted to his faith. But when he accepts a post in the Midwestern town of Corinth, he discovers a parish mired in resentment, politics, and hidden agendas. While some troubles stem from well-intentioned but misguided individuals, others are caused by selfish and evil motives. Is it any wonder that the town’s beautiful young nurse has no desire to join such a church? Now more than ever, Dan must trust in God’s wisdom and grace as he seeks to lead in the spirit of true loving kindness. A Higher Call is a compelling drama that challenges readers to think critically about the modern church.
