Quiet Talks on John's Gospel Samuel Dickey Gordon

In this small volume by S. D. Gordon from his "Quiet Talks" series, the subtle truths of John's gospel are discussed in a friendly, intimate manner. Gordon's purpose is not that of a scholarly writer trying to make his mark on the history of Biblical interpretation. Rather, he speaks to Christian "common folk," as he calls them, who may not be priests but still wish to deeply understand the nature of God and the revelation of Jesus. Through John, Gordon finds the essence of Christ's quest on Earth: the cultivation of love. American lay preacher SAMUEL DICKEY GORDON (1859-1936) was a devotional speaker in high demand throughout the early 1900s, as well as a prolific author of inspirational works. His "Quiet Talks" series includes Quiet Talks on Power and Quiet Talks About Jesus.
