520 _a"Memoir and Diary of John Yeardley, Minister of the Gospel" by John Yeardley is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book chronicles the life, spiritual journey, and ministerial work of John Yeardley, a member of the Society of Friends (Quakers), detailing his conversions, travels, and experiences in sharing his faith across different communities. At the start of the memoir, the reader is introduced to Yeardley's early life, including his upbringing in a farming family and difficulties faced due to his father's misconduct. The narrative highlights the pivotal moments leading to his conversion in 1803 under the influence of Joseph Wood, a notable minister who played a significant role in his spiritual development. Yeardley's initial struggles with faith, his social and familial conflicts, and his eventual acceptance of a ministerial calling are explored, showcasing his introspective nature and the evolution of his religious convictions. The opening portion sets the stage for a reflective journey filled with moral and spiritual growth, intertwined with personal anecdotes that illuminate the challenges Yeardley faced as he reconciled his earthly life with a higher calling.
