Blessing
Anthony Ashley Cooper , Seventh Earl of Shaftesbury, was one of the great figures of the nineteenth century. As a young man he was shocked by the sufferings of the poor and he spent his whole life, both in and out of Parliament, fighting to improve their lot. By his efforts many social evils were swept away, including the terrible conditions in mines and factories, the sufferings of women and young children who worked as slaves in the coal mines, and the misery of the little ' climbing boys ' who served as apprentices to the chimney-sweeps. His story illustrates the saying of Christ: ' He hath sent me ... to set at liberty them that are bruised ' (St. Luke 4, v. 18).

A series of four talks in which Canon T. R. Milford, Chancellor of Lincoln, discusses the place of discipline in the Christian life
Tonight Canon Milford deals with those things that cannot be altered, whose acceptance imposes a discipline upon us which we do not choose. Nature is morally indifferent and does not especially favour a good man. It imposes a discipline and presents us with facts that can be controlled only if they are accepted.
