About the author

George Hodges (1856–1919) was an American Episcopal theologian, born at Rome, N. Y., and educated at Hamilton College (A.B., 1877; A.M., 1882; LL.D., 1912). He served at Calvary Church, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from 1881 to 1894.[1] In 1893 he helped establish the Kingsley Association in Pittsburgh, an organization dedicated to helping immigrant workers.[2] Afterward, he became the dean of the Episcopal Theological School at Cambridge, Massachusetts. "The high esteem in which his religious messages are held by the reading public"[3] resulted in a number his books being reissued as a second edition in 1914.
