GOD IS A SPIRIT GOD ETERNAL GOD IS EVERY WHERE GOD ALL-WISE GOD KNOWS EVERY THING GOD'S POWER TRUTH OF GOD GOD DOES AS HE PLEASES GOD IS HOLY GOD IS GOOD Richard Newton, who was called by Spurgeon "The Prince of Preachers to Children", said the following about John "When I was a young man I happened to read a volume of "Lectures for Children" which had been written and published by Dr. John Todd. I felt then as if I had found a gold mine. That volume lasted me all through college, and taught me how to talk to children." This volume also includes an ADDRESS TO MOTHERS which is one of the finest brief essays we have ever read on the powerful influence of mothers on their children. It alone is worth the price of the book.
