Description
Nine of these sermons are from his later Evangelical years and were preached in St Clement’s Church Oxford, where the young Newman served as curate from July 1824 to March 1826. Although he was at St Clement’s for less than two years, he had a great impact on the parish, becoming widely respected as “a proper minister”. He visited every home (including, to his surprise, that of Fr Newsham, the Jesuit Catholic priest who had the small St Ignatius Catholic chapel there). He also started a Sunday school and preached regularly to a full church. The final sermon reproduced here (preached in 1827) is from the period of his transition to High Church views. At times he indicates (by a note at the start), an influence coming from Richard Whately.

Summary
This ebook is presented as Part II of John Henry Newman on the Sense of God in the Conscience. The Part I ebook traces Newman’s idea of the conscience and its sense of God over the course of his intellectual and literary life. This Part II ebook is an appendix to the text of Part I, and it provides for the interested reader copies of ten of Newman’s early manuscript sermons.
