Ripple Effect
A Sunday School teacher, a Mr. Kimball, in 1855, led a Boston shoe clerk to give his
life to Christ. The clerk, Dwight L. Moody, became an evangelist.
In England in 1879, Dwight L. Moody awakened evangelistic zeal in the heart of
Fredrick B. Meyer, pastor of a small church.
F.B. Meyer, preaching to an American college campus, brought to Christ a student named
J. Wilbur Chapman.
J. Wilbur Chapman, engaged to YMCA work, employed a former baseball player, Billy
Sunday, to do evangelistic work.
Bill Sunday held a revival in Charlotte, N.C. A group of local men were so
enthusiastic afterward that they planned another evangelistic campaign, bringing Mordecai
Hamm to town to preach.
During Mordecai Hamm's revival, a young man named Billy Graham heard the Gospel and
yielded his life to Christ.
Only Eternity will reveal the tremendous impact of that one Sunday School teacher, Mr.
Kimball, who invested his life in the lives of others.
