Synopsis

This book is a record of a sermon delivered after the death of a prominent businessman and church member named Jonathan Goodhue. The discourse lauds Goodhue as an exemplar of Christian virtue, particularly emphasizing his integrity, conscientiousness, benevolence, and love of freedom. The author positions Goodhue's life and character within the broader context of the challenges and temptations faced by merchants in the commercial metropolis of New York City. Through the example of Goodhue's unwavering moral principles and his dedication to the principles of peace, temperance, and respect for the rights of others, the author explores the potential for individuals to uphold Christian values even in the most demanding circumstances. The sermon concludes with a moving letter written by Goodhue himself, offering guidance to his family and reflecting on the importance of a life lived in accordance with the teachings of Christ. Through the exploration of Goodhue's life and virtues, this book offers a profound meditation on the power of individual example in promoting moral excellence and upholding the principles of Christianity.
