Perseverance: Moody Persevered
In 1873 D. L. Moody and Ira Sankey sailed to England for a series
of evangelistic meetings. But once there they found to their dismay
that all three of their prime contacts had died. Meetings had to be
hastily arranged. Some of the pastors who had endorsed Moody's
ministry turned against him. At Sunderland, a group of pastors
covered the public buildings with material warning about the Americans
and their "questionable procedure" and probable evil results." Rumors
about Moody traveled ahead of him. He and Sankey went to Scotland,
only to encounter deep skepticism. But Moody persevered, and revival
swept the British Isles. --Moody
