The sermons in this collection were preached in Hanson Place Methodist Episcopal Church during the month of January, 1896. Afterwards, they were printed in this volume, intended as a companion to Christ and His Friends. The Rev. Banks hoped that this volume would be "still more valuable to earnest Christian workers, who ... are seeking to win souls to the Master." -Summary by Devorah Allen
