Personal and Practical Christian Work

Excerpt from Personal and Practical Christian Work

For forty years it has been my privilege and delight to teach and practice the art of soul-winning.

As a pastor, it has been my privilege to minister to the sick, the shut-ins, and those bereft of loved ones, and to form friendships that have endured for long years, but the supreme joy of my life has been found in clasping the hand of a man who has looked me in the eyes and said, "I will take Jesus Christ to be my Saviour, and I will confess Him before men."

If the pages of this book are used to lead others to engage in soul-saving service in which they will find unspeakable joy, it will not have been written in vain.

There are many doors of usefulness open to Christians, but after fifty years of practical participation in church life, I am persuaded that the one door which has been opened to all by the Hand that was pierced, - the one possible for all to enter, and the one for our attitude toward which we shall all be held accountable, is the door through which He entered Who found the woman at the well and Who says to every believer, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.
