| Summary |
"Quiet Talks with World Winners" by S. D. Gordon is a collection of spiritual reflections likely written in the early 20th century. The book aims to inspire and motivate its readers to understand the driving passion of God's love towards humanity, emphasizing the importance of winning souls back to God through his messages and through the example of Jesus Christ. The opening of this work delves deeply into the concept of God's "master passion"—a fervent desire to win humanity back into a close relationship with Him. Gordon presents a poetic exploration of love, drawing parallels between human experiences of love and the divine love of God, particularly through the narrative of redemption found in the story of creation and the crucifixion of Jesus. He emphasizes God's relentless pursuit of individuals, framing this endeavor as a profound act of love. Through rich metaphors, including the nurturing qualities of mother-love, Gordon sets the stage for discussing how individuals can embody this divine love in their own lives in order to reach others.
