A Christian Directory, Part 2: Christian Economics

This edition presents a carefully edited transcription of a mid‑19th‑century manual that blends practical theology with everyday family guidance. The text forms the second part of a larger work, concentrating on marriage, household governance, and the moral duties of Christians toward one another. Editorial notes explain modern formatting choices, making the historic language more accessible for today’s listeners.

Within its pages the author outlines how a believer might discern whether marriage is a divine calling, weighing parental counsel, personal liberty, and the spiritual benefits of singleness versus wedlock. He offers concrete criteria for choosing a spouse, navigating parental authority, and structuring family life in alignment with scriptural principles. Listeners will hear a measured, reflective discussion of ethical dilemmas that still resonate with anyone curious about the roots of Christian family ethics.
