About this book
C. T. Studd calls for Christian courage through the image of a soldier who melts at the first sign of difficulty. This religious address sets practical obedience against comfortable professions of faith, using military language, sharp jokes and repeated challenges to make its case. Noah, Abraham, Moses and David appear as examples of people whose trust in God becomes visible through action, risk and perseverance.
Studd also turns biblical figures into portraits of hesitant believers, giving different kinds of reluctance their own chocolate labels. Church conventions, fine resolutions and concern for public approval come under his scrutiny when they replace a willingness to serve.
