About This Book

A series of practical exhortations urges Christians to make disciplined, continual engagement with Scripture the foundation of spiritual life, warning that occasional meetings alone cannot produce lasting change. The work stresses a balance of Word and work, trains new converts to feed on the Bible, and recommends family and class study, deliberate reading plans, and searching the Scriptures with helpful questions. It presents the Bible as the believer’s guide and weapon, highlights the need for Spirit-led insight so familiar passages become freshly alive, and links Bible study to more effective prayer, growth, and resistance to error.

About the Author

Dwight Lyman Moody

Dwight Lyman Moody (1837-1899) was a prominent American evangelist and publisher known for his influential role in the revivalist movement of the late 19th century. He founded the Moody Church in Chicago and established the Moody Bible Institute, which continues to educate and train Christian leaders today. Moody's works often focus on practical Christian living and biblical teachings, with notable titles such as "Bible Characters" and "Men of the Bible." His engaging anecdotes and illustrations, as seen in "Moody's Anecdotes and Illustrations," have made his sermons accessible and impactful, contributing significantly to evangelical literature.
