| Publisher Description: This volume of sermons is organized according to the Apostles' Creed, which expresses Davies's own solid faith as a Christian believer. But the sermons themselves apply to a variety of situations from history, psychology, and lore. Davies uses the intellect to touch and console the heart.

Later, during some summers in America, he also had interim pastorates at Brookfield, Connecticut, and at Tunbridge, Vermont.
