No one knew D. L. Moody better than R. A. Torrey. Torrey was Moody's closest associate evangelist and the first leader of his Bible Institute. Torrey shares seven of the reasons why Moody was such a successful preacher—and successful he was. Moody preached to 100 million people before the invention of public address systems and modern media. Among the secrets are Moody's humility, his absence of any love for money and his passion for souls. Christian Life Books has enhanced the book by adding a short biography of Moody and two of his great sermons. This book is a must read for anyone longing for the kind of power with God that Moody possessed.

Reuben Archer Torrey studied at Yale and in Germany before taking up a pastorate in the United States. As a gifted intellectual, administrator, and Bible teacher, he went on to pastor Moody Church in Chicago and became D.L. Moody's closest associate. In his later years, he traveled the world as an evangelist speaking to millions in Australia, New Zealand, India, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Japan, China, Hawaii, Germany, the United States, and Canada. Torrey edited the last two volumes of the monumental "The Fundamentals" and was instrumental in the founding of both Moody Bible Institute and BIOLA University.
