Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Anecdotes and Illustrations The value of an apt illustration can hardly be over estimated. It is oftentimes the entering wedge or the clinching conclusion for the more serious argument. At times it is both. Mr. D. L. Moody used to say that a sermon without illustrations was like a house without windows. To one of his ablest associates, one second to none as a Bible expositor, he would frequently say, "You don´t put enough windows in your sermons. No one can do it better, but you get so interested in your subject you go on and on with argument and proof texts until the audience is weary. Yon want to wake them up: let them see out and in through a window - use pointed illustrations." One does not need to say the preacher referred to was not Dr. Torrey, for his use of apt stories largely drawn from his own wide and varied experience, add largely to the effective ministry of his powerful addresses. The collection of stories and illustrations here gathered has had Dr. Torrey´s careful revision, but for the form of publication and especially for the addition of illustrations and portraits, the publisher alone is responsible.
