"Reading gives delight, class, and ability; the wise crave it, the crafty discourage it, and the stupid neglect it."
Foreword by Terry Anglea
I have read with great fascination this book on the life and ministry of D.L. Moody. Although I have read other books about this great man, I was captivated by the stories and illustrations written upon these pages. Once again, I was reminded of what God can do with a life "wholly dedicated to Him."
In a day and age when there are many wonderful institutions of learning available for our God called preacher-boys, it is incumbent upon us as their pastors to remind them never to stray from the "simplicity which is in Christ." I am certainly grateful for the opportunities available to learn and obviously Mr. Moody himself was for educational institutions. However, all the book learning and method strategizing in the world cannot replace the power of a simple, close walk with Jesus Christ.
May those of us who have been put into the ministry seek to carry on the great work of preaching and soul winning with the compassion and conviction on D.L. Moody. May this book inspire us to learn from his successs and secrets and to continue on until we come face to face with out Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. |
