Wherever Moody spoke, whether in his own country or in other English-speaking lands, he invariably commanded attention and aroused interest of the people. He retained to the very last of his public career the qualities which marked him from the outset as a potent preacher.
The London Spectator wrote of him saying "Mr. Moody undoubtedly exerted a powerful and stimulating influence, not only on the masses, but on many of those who were his superiors in birth, breeding or intellect.
D.L. Moody has taken his place among the immortals. In his own sphere his work was owned by God as truly as was that of Mr. Spurgeon in his sphere. Mr. Moody gave great prominence and power to the work of the laity. He emphasized the gentler rather than the sterner elements of the Gospel. His ministry was one of declaration rather than one of argumentation. His educational work is the most enduring feature of his unique service and his consecrated life.
J. Wilbur Chapman was a friend and close colleague of Mr. Moody for many years. He tells of the life and work of Moody like no other. He brings closeness to Moody as only a close acquaintance could.
