Moody Concentrated On Evangelism

The Wycliffe Handbook of Preaching & Preachers, W. Wiersbe, p. 200

It was in 1873, in Dublin that D. L. Moody heard British evangelist Henry Varley utter those life changing words: &ld;The world has yet to see what God can do with and for and through and in a man who is fully and wholly consecrated to Him.&rd; It was after an all-night prayer meeting in Dublin, at the home of Henry Bewley. Varley did not even remember making the statement when Moody reminded him of it a year later. &ld;As I crossed the wide Atlantic,&rd; Moody said, &ld;the boards of the deck…were engraved with them, and when I reached Chicago, the very paving stones seemed marked with them.&rd; The result: Moody decided he was involved in too many ministries to be effective and therefore began to concentrate on evangelism.
