Welcome to our collection of popular quotes by

Dwight L. Moody

Dwight Lyman Moody was an American evangelist and publisher. He was born in Northfield, Massachusetts in 1837. He gave up his lucrative boot and shoe business to devote his life to revivalism, working first in the Civil War with Union troops through YMCA in the United States Christian Commission.

Moody became well known as an evangelist during a trip to the United Kingdom in the spring of 1872. He preached almost a hundred times and came into communion with the Plymouth Brethren. On several occasions, he filled stadia of a capacity of 2,000 to 4,000. According to his memoir, in the Botanic Gardens Palace, he attracted an audience estimated at between 15,000 and 30,000.

Moody founded the Moody Church, Northfield School and Mount Hermon School in Massachusetts (now Northfield Mount Hermon School), Moody Bible Institute and Moody Publishers. He died in 1899.
