How Moody and Sankey Met An Old Story Retold
Moody and Sankey met by chance in 1870 at an Indianapolis Young Men's Christian Association convention. Moody chose Sankey to join him, saying Sankey could sing and Moody would do the talking. The moment Moody learned Sankey’s background, he urged him to quit his government job and join the mission to save souls.
