About the author

Born in London on April 8, 1847, Frederick Brotherton Meyer studied at Brighton College, graduated from the University of London, and trained for ministry at Regent’s Park Baptist College. He went on to serve Baptist churches in Liverpool, York, Leicester, and London, building a reputation as a gifted preacher and pastor.

Meyer was closely connected with the wider evangelical world of his time, including figures such as D. L. Moody and A. C. Dixon. He was active in ministry on both sides of the Atlantic and became known not only for preaching and evangelism, but also for inner-city mission work and public engagement on social issues.

He is best remembered today as a prolific author of devotional and biblical books, many marked by a direct, encouraging style that helped make them lasting favorites. Meyer died on March 28, 1929, but his writings have remained widely read by Christians looking for clear, practical spiritual guidance.
