What reading level is The Light of the World : And Other Sermons book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A little work like a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. It may not easily and all at once submit to be obedient ; but as it goes deeper and touches more mighty tasks it must come into the presence of the power which is be- hind all powers, and feel God. Until it does that it may trifle, it may grow profane; but all the time it is on the way to reverence, the highest reverence, — the reverence which comes not by idle contemplation, but by obedient work.
Poor is the soul which has not reveren...ce ! You may have many powers and gifts, but if you have not rever- ence there is a blight upon them all. Only be sure you seek for reverence aright. Not by shutting your eyes to God or any of His truth, but by spreading your wings before your eyes, by putting your active powers in the forefront of your life, by doing your work as deeply, in as true a sense of obedience to God, as possible, so shall you touch the Infinite, and live in a serene and cheerful awe. The veiling of intelligence with obedience shall give it light and not darkness.
