The article focuses on the Christian Minister J.H. Jowett in the New York. The departure of J.H. Jowett from New York raises some interesting questions. His decision to return to England is said to have been reached chiefly on two grounds: his own personal desire to share in the task of reconstruction in his own country, and the urgent invitations reported to have been directed to him by persons prominent in English life who believe that he has a special contribution to make to the future of England. He is the most conspicuous and successful pulpiteer of his time and is on that account generally regarded as the most authentic exponent of the preaching tradition.
