This book is a reprint of the farewell sermon delivered by Reginald Heber in the Parish Church of Hodnet in 1823, shortly before he departed for India to serve as Bishop of Calcutta. Heber’s sermon, based on 1 Peter II:11, reflects on the Christian duty to lead a holy life and to live as ’strangers and pilgrims’ in this world. This sermon is a powerful testimony to Heber’s deep faith and his commitment to the Christian mission.
