England's Stewardship The Substance of a Sermon Preached on the Fast-Day, in Trinity Church, Tunbridge Wells

"England's Stewardship" by Edward Hoare is a sermon from a fast-day at Trinity Church, Tunbridge Wells, that considers England's ethical duties as a colonial power, especially concerning crisis-ridden India. The religious text challenges England to reflect on its role, advocating for the spread of Christian values in its colonies and questioning the moral impact of its actions. The sermon emphasizes the contrast between England's power and the hardships faced by the Indian people, critiquing governmental policies on issues such as the opium trade and the insufficient work of the Church in promoting Christian teachings, ultimately urging the nation to adopt a more morally sound approach to its colonial responsibilities.
