Jefferson, pastor of the Broadway Tabernacle in New York City, critiques an October Woman’s Home Companion piece on pursuing “a good time.” He argues piety and happiness are linked, condemns the idea that Christianity requires giving up desires, and laments youth cynicism while urging faith to bring joy.
