Moody, D.L. — Notes From My Bible (1895) — First Edition
“During the course of [Moody’s] reading it was his habit to gather ‘nuggets’ by the way, and make a note of them on the margins and blank leaves of his Bibles. A volume was issued in 1895 that reproduces a number of these, Notes From My Bible. It makes a rich mine of Bible readings, illustrations, etc., for Bible students. ‘Let this book serve you not only as a storehouse, but also as a stimulus,’ says Mr. Moody in the preface. ‘Whether you are a minister or layman, you will find that you will grow more interested in the Bible day by day if you follow the course of making notes of sayings similar to those contained in this volume, of outline sermons, and of anything that helps to light up osme well-known truth and fasten it in the memory. It is a good thing to be ready with new thoughts to present the old truths of the Bible.’—Shorter Life of D.L. Moody.
