Next to the study of the Holy Writ itself, there is probably no class of literature so stimulating and inspiring as Christian biography. Especially is this true when the person, whose life-story is under consideration, is one who was characterized by genuine piety and fervent zeal for Christ and the salvation of a lost world. The knowledge that a man or woman of like passions with ourselves, has nevertheless been moved upon and energized by the Spirit of God in a manner above that which Christians ordinarily experience, is an encouragement for every reader to count on God for similar grace. Our environments and temperaments may differ widely, but the power that will enable us to act in our special sphere to the glory of Him who has saved us, must necessarily be the same in every case.
