(Samuel Dickey) 1859 1936 Gordon, Samuel Dickey Quiet Talks on Following the Christ Produced by Curtis Weyant and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Quiet Talks on Following the Christ" by S. D. Gordon is a spiritual guide written in the early 20th century. This religious text seeks to explore the nature of following Jesus Christ, emphasizing the personal relationship and connection one can cultivate through faith. The themes of friendship, sacrifice, and obedience play a central role, inviting readers to engage with the deeper meanings of discipleship. The opening of the book introduces a narrative that sets the tone for the discussions on following Christ. It begins with a personal encounter on a ship, where a Japanese officer expresses doubt about the power of Christianity in real life. This leads into a broader reflection on how Jesus Christ draws individuals to a profound and personal friendship with Him, stressing the importance of accepting His invitation to follow. The text elaborates on the characteristics of Christ's life, including His humility, obedience, and sacrifice, and suggests that true followers are called to share in the joys and challenges of living out these traits in their own lives.
