Excerpt from The Pulpit and the Pew: Lyman Beecher Lectures Delivered 1913, Before the Divinity School of Yale University
With the understanding then that all functions are holy functions if christianly exercised, and that in itself the calling of one who pleads before the bar is as holy a calling as that of one who preaches from the pulpit, we come back naturally to the proposition, stated a moment ago, that the question of one's life work is to be settled on the basis of constitutional aptitude, and that the Christian young man is under no kind of obligation to enter the ministry and ought not to enter the ministry, on the mere ground that he is a Christian, but on the ground that, added to that, he is by nature adapted to that character of service, if so be that he is so adapted.
