Produktbeschreibung

this audiobook is sent out to induce people to look at their own eyes, to pick up the gold in their laps, to study anatomy under the tutorship of their own hearts. One could accumulate great wisdom and secure fortunes by studying his own finger-nails. This lesson seems the very easiest to learn, and for that reason is the most difficult. The lecture, "The Silver Crown," which the author has been giving in various forms for fifty years, is herein printed from a stenographic report of one address on this general subject. It will not be found all together, as a lecture, for this book is an attempt to give further suggestion on the many different ways in which the subject has been treated, just as the lecture has varied in its illustrations from time to time. The lecture was addressed to the ear. This truth, which amplifies the lecture, is addressed to the eye.

Autorenporträt

Russell Herman Conwell was born on February 15, 1843, in South Worthington, Massachusetts, to Martin Conwell and Miranda Wickham Conwell. Raised on a New England farm, he developed a strong work ethic early in life. He pursued higher education at Yale University and Albany Law School, where he gained experience in both theology and law. His early career included serving as a lawyer, journalist, and soldier during the Civil War, where he displayed leadership and resilience. After the war, he transitioned into ministry, becoming a prominent Baptist preacher known for his compelling public speaking. In Philadelphia, he served as pastor of The Baptist Temple and became a central figure in the city's spiritual and educational life. In 1884, he founded Temple College, later Temple University, aiming to provide educational opportunities to working-class individuals. His widely celebrated lecture, Acres of Diamonds, emphasized the value of finding opportunity in one's immediate surroundings. Through his philanthropy, teaching, and public service, he influenced countless lives and shaped institutions that continue today. Conwell died on December 6, 1925, in Philadelphia and was buried at the Founder's Garden, leaving a legacy grounded in faith, education, and the pursuit of self-betterment.
