C. G. Moule is a guide on the spiritual and practical aspects of Christian ministry written in the late 19th century. This work is particularly directed towards young clergymen within the Church of England, emphasizing the importance of personal spirituality, pastoral duties, and the vital relationship between a minister's personal life and his congregational responsibilities. At the start of the book, the author establishes the significance of maintaining a "secret walk with God," laying out the necessity for personal holiness in a minister's life to effectively fulfill pastoral duties. He acknowledges the challenges young ministers face—such as the demands of new roles and feelings of loneliness—that can hinder a close relationship with God. Moule advises on various practical aspects of maintaining this communion, including the importance of regular prayer, study of scripture, and a well-ordered daily life that prioritizes spiritual well-being as foundational to ministerial effectiveness. Throughout, there is a strong call for clergymen to immerse themselves in their faith deeply to navigate the dual demands of pastoral work and personal holiness.
