After the meeting was over I went to her and asked her what the trouble was. She said, "Oh, Mr. Moody, this has been the most miserable week of my life." I asked her if there was any one with whom she had had trouble and whom she could not forgive. She said, "No, not that I know of." "Well, did you tell your friends about having found the Saviour?" "Indeed I didn't. I have been all the week trying to keep it from them." "Well," I said, "that is the reason why you have no peace." She wanted to take the crown, but did not want the cross. My friends, you must go by the way of Calvary. If you ever get peace and joy you must get it at the foot of the cross. "Why," she said, "if I should go home and tell my infidel husband that I had found Christ, I don't know what he would do. I think he would turn me out." "Well," I said, "go out." She went away, promising that she would tell him, timid and pale, but she did not want another wretched week. She was bound to have peace. The next night I gave a lecture to men only, and in the hall there were eight thousand men and one solitary woman. When I got through and went into the inquiry meeting I found this lady with her husband. She introduced him to me (he was a doctor and a very influential man), and said: "He wants to become a Christian." I took my Bible and told him all about Christ, and he accepted Him. I said to her after it was all over: "It turned out quite differently from what you expected, didn't it?" "Yes," she replied; "I was never so scared in my life. I expected he would do something dreadful, but it has turned out so well." She took God's way, and got the joy and peace she sought. How to Settle the Theater Question A lady came to me once and said, "Mr. Moody, I wish you would tell me how I can become a Christian." The tears were rolling down her cheeks, and she was in a very favorable mood. "But," she said, "I don't want to be one of your kind." "Well," I asked, "have I got any peculiar kind? What is the matter with my Christianity?" "Well," she said, "my father was a doctor, and had a large practice, and he used to get so tired that he used to take us to the theater. There was a large family of girls, and we had tickets for the theaters three or four times a week. I suppose we were there a good deal oftener than we were in church. I am married to a lawyer, and he has a large practice. He gets so tired that he takes us out to the theater," and she said, "I am far better acquainted with the theater and theater people than with the church and church people, and I don't want to give up the theater." "Well," I said, "did you ever hear me say anything about theaters? There have been reporters here every day for all the different papers, and they are giving my sermons verbatim in one paper. Have you ever seen anything in the sermons against the theaters?" She said, "No."
