Synopsis
The Complete Works Of Rev. Daniel A. Clark: With A Biographical Sketch And An Estimate Of His Powers As A Preacher by Daniel Atkinson Clark is a 19th-century American evangelical sermon collection and miscellany. It blends biblical expositions, moral exhortations, devotional essays, sermons on social and personal virtue, short narratives, poems, and block-quotations to awaken piety, encourage active Christian living, and mobilize readers for mission and reform. A key narrative strand is the Syrian Captive, a didactic tale where an unnamed Israelite girl helps Naaman the Syrian general seek healing from the prophet in Israel; the general is healed, vows to worship the Hebrew God, and is redirected toward reform and mission. Interwoven pieces emphasize meekness, righteousness, prayer, Scripture’s sufficiency, regeneration, and the worldwide scope of the gospel, including Sabbath-school pedagogy and revivalist aims. The work targets clergy, Sabbath-school teachers, and lay readers seeking doctrinal clarity, moral instruction, and renewed Christian witness.
