Summary "The Overcoming Life, and Other Sermons" by Dwight Lyman Moody is a collection of religious sermons written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the themes of faith, perseverance, and the internal and external battles faced by Christians in their spiritual journey. Moody emphasizes the struggle against sin and the importance of maintaining a strong relationship with God to achieve true victory in life. The opening of the book introduces the concept of the "Christian's Warfare," asserting that while salvation is a gift, living a victorious Christian life involves continuous effort and fighting against both internal and external foes. Moody illustrates this with personal anecdotes and scriptural references, stressing that believers must be active participants in their faith rather than passive recipients. The text serves as an encouragement to Christians to recognize the realities of their spiritual battles and to rely on their faith in God to triumph over life's challenges.
