What reading level is The Social Work of Christian Missions book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The only relief for the child life of heathenism is the new valuation of life which Christianity brings. Even if the gross cruelties of sale and death are for- bidden through a greater enlightenment, there will be no real emancipation until Christianity brings its divine right of childhood. In the midst of ancient society the church stood as the savior of child life. It forbade the exposure of little ones and made it a virtue to rescue them. It founded asylums and ad- ministered them for centur...ies before governments learned that the founding of such institutions were a part of their responsibility. In mission lands to-day the church does the same work. In famine times in India it has rescued its tens of thousands, and at all times has entered its note of protest against abhorrent custom. The supreme right of the father extended to maturity and beyond among the ancient pagans, just as it does to this day in modern China. He had the legal power of life and death and his will was su- preme by the patriarchal law.
