    Thank you God, thank you Mr Peale. As a Muslim, I was enlightened by the light spread by Vincent Peale. His book and teachings are very beautiful. We all have one God, I wish love and brotherhood to everyone.❤

      Thank you for sharing that. Sadly, and annoyingly, there are so many so-called Christians who attack Dr Peale, now no longer able to defend himself, and his message. Those who truly listened to the man, and who read his many books (and not just one or two of them), know that he was truly a man of God who preached the Word of God. I heard him speak in Sydney, Australia, where I live, twice. I was so impressed. It would have been wonderful to have attended his church when he was the senior minister there. I have attended services at Marble Collegiate when I was in New York several years ago but Dr Peale had passed on by then. I have been to Quaker Hill Cemetery, Pawling, New York and paid my respects to Dr Peale.

    Never realised how powerful Dr Peale’s teachings were until recently.
    Timeless and fundamental.

      He was certainly a very dynamic preacher and speaker. I heard him preach twice in Australia where I live. He was very old by then but still incredible. I have derived much benefit from his books and talks over the decades. All the very best to you--and thanks for sharing.

      Wikipedia rips this guy a new one. Sighting people in the psychiatric field that said his book power of positive thinking is damaging and dangerous. I read one criticism and it sounds very unfounded and assumptive. Wik isn't putting the other side of the argument. I wonder why? 🤔

    Growing up in the 70s, Mom would have Norman Vincent Peale on the radio Sunday nights. I think it was WOR.... listening to him back in those days probably built my foundation for a positive thinker. And. love his humor in his sermons.

      Well, I’ve always thought that as well. Some evangelical Christians dismiss his theology but they fail to understand that he was deliberately not using their theological language, so as to reach a much wider readership.

      He was old by this time. He was still preaching and giving talks in his early 1990s. The voice was weak by then but his mind was sharp. I have lots of his sermons and talks on this UA-cam channel. Check out the Norman Vincent Peale playlist on this channel. Keep well.

    • @drianej
      @drianej  6 місяців тому +1

      He was a minister of the Gospel who preached the Gospel. I firmly believe that. He was a conservative evangelical who believed it was his mission from God not to use the traditional language and thoughtforms of evangelical Christianity.
