About the author
Born in New York City in 1851, James M. Gray became a pastor in the Reformed Episcopal Church before gaining wider recognition as a Bible teacher, editor, and author. He served in ministry in Boston and later became closely connected with Moody Bible Institute in Chicago.
Gray was president of Moody Bible Institute from 1904 to 1934, a long period in which he helped strengthen its reputation for Bible-centered training. Alongside his leadership work, he wrote books, edited religious publications, and contributed hymns, building a broad influence through both the pulpit and the printed page.
He died in 1935, but his work remains of interest to readers looking for straightforward Christian teaching from an important figure in American evangelical history.
