Cuyler on “Sermons in Shoes”
R. Andrew Myers
⬩
“To-day this world’s sorest need is for more Christ-like men and women. The sermons it needs are sermons in shoes. The preaching that alone can save it is the preaching of a living Christ illustrated by the holy lives of His followers. A church that does not tread in the footsteps of its Master will never convert a sinful world to God.” — Theodore L. Cuyler, “Sermons in Shoes,” Stirring the Eagle’s Nest, and Other Practical Discourses (1892), p. 169
