Evangelist Dwight L. Moody relates the story of how he benefited from one particularly vivid and crucial message. Drummond’s memorable homily on love—the supreme good—retains all its original freshness and vitality in this oral rendition.

A Scottish evangelist in the late 19th century, Drummond is best remembered for this 1880 meditation, The Greatest Thing in the World, his thoughts on Paul's great hymn to love, 1 Corinthians 13. It is an empowering message, as timeless as it is life-affirming.

One of the biggest secrets of the ages is this: thought is creative. Thought creates reality—no matter how much it might seem otherwise. This is the secret of power, success, love, and health.

These twelve classic works all describe the true power of mind and how to make it work for you to achieve success and fulfillment in all areas of life: work, money, relationships, even luck.

Professor of the natural sciences, world lecturer, and missionary, Henry Drummond was a man of multiple talents and interests. His penetrating scientific mind enabled him to tackle topics such as the way to become like Christ ( The Changed Life) and objections to faith ( Dealing with Doubt) with clarity and accuracy.

"This question, let it be carefully observed, applies to laws not to phenomena. That the Phenomena of the Spiritual World are in analogy with the Phenomena of the Natural World requires no restatement. Since Plato enunciated his doctrine of the Cave or of the twice-divided line; since Christ spake in parables; since Plotinus wrote of the world as an image...since "Sartor Resartus" and "In Memoriam," it has been all but a commonplace with thinkers that "the invisible things of God from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made."

Meet Tricky—the most mischievous (and utterly unkillable!) monkey you’ll ever encounter.

Was ist das Höchste und Wertvollste, was ein Mensch in seinem Leben erstreben und gewinnen kann? Paulus stellt in 1. Korinther 13 die Liebe als das Allergrößte heraus. In diesem Büchlein führt uns Henry Drummond die verschiedenen Ausdrucksweisen und Erscheinungsformen der Liebe im praktischen Leben vor Augen und gibt damit dem Wort Liebe, das so oft missdeutet wurde oder abgenutzt und sinnentleert erschien, aufs Neue einen vielfältigen, lebensnahen Inhalt.

This is clearly abook every manager should listen to. One of the issues Mintzberg addresses is the frenetic pace and relentless pressures of the job - most managers hardly have time to think. So Mintzberg has done some revising and some updating and has distilled the essence of his original book into a lean, action-oriented shortened version. The core of the book remains the same: Mintzberg's observations of twenty-nine different managers, from business, government, and nonprofits, working in diverse settings ranging from a refugee camp to a symphony orchestra.

Now, in the first book ever written about this ultrasecretive department, the former director of OTS teams up with an internationally renowned intelligence historian to give listeners an unprecedented look at the devices and operations deemed "inappropriate for public disclosure" by the CIA just two years ago.

Isabel Archer is a young American woman swept off to Europe in the late 19th century by an aunt who hopes to round out the impetuous but naïve girl's experience of the world. When Isabel comes into a large, unexpected inheritance, she is finagled into a marriage with the charming, penniless, and - as Isabel finds out too late - cruel and deceitful Gilbert Osmond, whose connection to a certain Madame Merle is suspiciously intimate.

The ability to make sound and timely decisions is the mark of a good leader. But when leaders with otherwise strong track records suddenly begin making poor decisions - as seen in the recent corporate scandals that rocked the business world - the impact can be widespread. In The Stress Effect, leadership expert Henry L. Thompson argues that stress is often the real culprit behind this leadership failure.

It sometimes happens that a man, in giving to the world the truths that have most influenced his life, unconsciously writes the truest kind of a character sketch. This was so in the case of Henry Drummond, and no words of mine can better describe his life or character than those in which he has presented to us," The Greatest Thing in the World." Some men take an occasional journey into the 13th of One Corinthians, but Henry Drummond was a man who lived there constantly, appropriating its blessings and exemplifying its teachings.

Henry Drummond (1851-1897) was a Scottish evangelist, biologist, writer, and lecturer. This essay is about a man laying down his life as Christ laid down His life. It is also about using plain language when talking about the message of the Bible.

Ist die Liebe einfach da, als etwas, das uns zusteht? Oder müssen wir Liebe zuerst geben, um sie zu empfangen? Gibt es nur eine Liebe oder viele Erscheinungsformen? Und wie lernen wir, wirklich zu lieben? Diese Fragen stellte sich der junge Denker Henry Drummond 1874. Seine Reflexionen gingen damals um die Welt... bis Paulo Coelho sie an einem Wendepunkt in seinem Leben für sich entdeckte und für unsere Zeit adaptierte.
