Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ten Days With D. L, Moody: Comprising a Collection of His Sermons, Also Sermons and Addresses by Prominent Christian Workers at the Christian Convention Held at Northfield, the Home of Mr. Moody
Northfeld is perhaps as near an approach to Heaven on earth as can anywhere be found. While driving along the main street from the station you admire the tall spreading elms Which line the Wide avenue. But When you reach the north end of the town and approach Mr. Moody's house, a scene bursts upon the view to Which I know no parallel. In the foreground, looking' west, the vari-colored fields slope down to the Connecticut river, which supplies to the picture the element of water, and can be seen for many miles of its course. Beyond the river, very gradually and gently rises 21 range of ver dure-clad hills extending as far as the eye can reach in both directions, and toward the north over-topped in the dim distance by bluish mountain peaks. From the seminary buildings the panorama is somewhat modified, but in its general aspects much the same. The Whole effect is that of serenity and repose. The voice of. N ature is the voice of peace. The place is hallowed by its later uses; and in a word, it is a morsel of Paradise regained.
