The Greatest Is Charity: The Life of Andrew Reed, Preacher and Philanthropist

"In a library archive in Surrey can be found the last words Andrew Reed ever wrote. They sum up his philosophy, that true gospel compassion, true gospel charity should look to the needs of the whole person; that individuals should be cared for holistically, both body and soul. They are words of Scripture written in a spidery hand with failing strength, but then underlined with a firmness and resolve showing that in his dying days his conviction and spirit were undimmed: 'The greatest is charity.'" To Andrew Reed these words were more than a mere motto, but were words that drove his life.
