Sunday, a prominent American evangelist, emphasizing his unique approach to preaching and the substantial impact he had on religious revivalism during his time. Through a blend of personal anecdotes and Sunday’s own words, it reveals the fervent connection he had with the common people and the significant number of conversions he facilitated.
