The Upper Currents J. R. Miller

"These chapters contain simple lessons, intended to incite to braver, stronger, truer living. We live well only when down here on earthly levels we catch the breath of heaven and are impelled toward things that are worthwhile. To be moved only by the lower earthly currents is to miss all that is best in life." James Russell Miller was a popular Christian author, Editorial Superintendent of the Presbyterian Board of Publication, and pastor of several churches in Pennsylvania and Illinois. He was the General field Agent for the United States Christian Commission, an organization established by the Young Men's Christian Association after the First Battle of Bull Run. Miller authored nearly 100 books and articles.
