On this day we remember a defender of the Christian faith, Ernst Hengstenberg, born 1802, and a definer of the faith, P. Schaff, who died on this day in 1893. The reading is "In Memory of My Dear Grandchild" by Anne Bradstreet.

On this day, the famous Olney Hymns were first published in 1779. And Charles Spurgeon preaches and tragedy strikes the Surrey Gardens Music Hall in 1856. The reading is "Praise for Faith" by William Cowper.
