This collection of lectures by Catherine Booth and William Booth form a passionate call to Christians to improve the dire social status of society's poor and downtrodden. Along with her husband William Booth, who assisted in the preparation and publication of this splendid book, Catherine Booth was a fervent supporter of Christian charity; extending support and aid to help the disadvantaged was seen by the author to be a crucial tenet of good character. Throughout her life, Catherine Booth would point to Christ as a prime example of a Christian virtue and self-sacrifice. At the time Catherine Booth wrote these talks in the late 19th century, levels of poverty in the United States and Europe were abysmally great. It is by casting her gaze back to the life of Jesus Christ that Booth sees a clear inspiration for all in the face of such degradation. Only when Christians unite in opposition to poverty will social reform and improvements take hold in wider society.

This is a republication of a Christian classic. Have you noticed that contemporary Christianity is lacking backbone? Every day our culture slides farther and farther away from God and it seems we are powerless to stop it. We need the Spirit of the original apostles. They turned the world upside down with their radical faith in God. They changed the course of history and we can too. But if we want the same results the got, we must have the same faith that they had. Aggressive Christianity is a call to radical discipleship. It will challenge even those who think they are sold-out. It will call you to be what God truly intended you to be. In this book Catherine Booth explains what it means to be a real Christian, and how real Christians change the world. She lays the foundation of what true conversion is, how the Gospel is advanced, and shows how we can and must recapture the Spirit of of the original apostles. This is a serious call for serious believers. Maybe it’s time you walked in Aggressive Christianity

Only when Christians unite in opposition to poverty will social reform and improvements take hold in wider society. As a co-founder of the Salvation Army, Booth used her influence to encourage her fellow man to undertake assistance for the poor. Through hard work, many who would otherwise have collapsed under the burden of poverty were able to get on their feet and live good lives again. To this day, the Salvation Army carries out good works in the same spirit expressed by these early lectures.
