Autorenporträt

Samuel Dickey Gordon was born on August 12, 1859, in Philadelphia, he became a prominent evangelical lay minister and author during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His early career included serving as assistant secretary of the Philadelphia Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) from 1884 to 1886, after which he took on the role of state secretary for the YMCA in Ohio, a position he held until 1895. His work with the YMCA shaped his commitment to Christian outreach and personal ministry. Gordon gained widespread recognition for his "Quiet Talks" series, a collection of devotional books beginning in 1903 that focused on spiritual subjects and presented in an approachable and reflective style. These writings stood out for their conversational tone and emphasis on individual experience with God. His works were distinct from many contemporary religious authors, contributing a deeply personal perspective on spiritual life. He passed away in June 1936, leaving behind a legacy rooted in lay ministry and written devotion.
