Inscription. From the pulpit of this venerable church, this man with matchless eloquence and person to person persuasiveness sent forth a message that circled the globe. He taught that positive thinking when applied to the power of the Christian message could not only overcome all difficulties but also bring about triumphant lives. Let all who worship here, then, be open to Dr. Peale's momentous message.
