Radical Churchman
Edward Hicks was called a pro-Boer, a feminist, and three parts a pacifist. Asquith chose him for the bishopric of Lincoln after a long ministry in the slums of Salford and he stood out among the bishops of his time for his radical opinions. He supported the New Liberalism of the turn of the century and was one of the few church leaders who welcomed the rise of the Labour Party. This study traces his life and influence amidst the social and political upheavals of the time.
The Life and Letters of Edward Lee Hicks (Bishop of Lincoln, 1910-1919) (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Edward Lee Hicks (Bishop of Lincoln, 1910-1919) Scholar, reformer, saint, lovable human being - the union of these characters is one personality is so rare that it might be held to justify a record, even if many who knew Edward Lee Hicks had not asked that his story should be written. The fullness of detail of the old two-volume biographies has not been attempted here; still less has there been any desire to imitate the more modern fashion of impressionistic portraiture, broad strokes and splashes of colour, or the "cleverness which never knows when it is handling something too great for it, and is always cutting capers when it had better be upon its knee...
Addresses on the Temptation
For many years I have felt that in the story of the Temptation we have a self-revelation of the mind of Christ, embodied in a brief and deeply symbolic narrative, the right interpretation of which, if we could but compass it, would yield invaluable results. The study of the Temptation involves the question of the supernatural. But again it is obvious, that the miraculous or supernatural in the Gospel centres in the Personality of Christ. When, from a study of the records, we have made up our minds (I speak reverently) who and what He is, we may then enquire whether what is termed the miraculous element in the story befits our conception of Himself.
