Summary

On December 23, 1899, front-page headlines announced the death of renowned preacher Dwight Lyman Moody. A century later his legacy endures, not only in the publishing and educational institutions that bear his name but also in the work of his successors in the field of mass evangelism. Now students of North American religious history, pastors, and lay Christians who revere his memory can get to know him through his own words.

In "Commending the Faith: The Preaching of D. L. Moody," church historian Garth Rosell presents a selection of Moody's mass appeal: his sincerity, humility, enthusiasm, generosity, and clarity of focus. It also shows the quiet power of the heartwarming stories with which he abundantly illustrated his points. Rosell's introduction, specially prepared for this centennial of Moody's death, assesses Moody's historical importance and offers him as an inspiration and a model for Christians today.

"I'm extremely grateful for a book that keeps the sermons of D. L. Moody alive for another generation. They pack as much power in the twenty-first
