Though her life was difficult, Hannah Whitall Smith ’s message was joyful. In The Christian ’s Secret of a Happy Life, she writes that “Jesus came to save you fully now, in this life, from the power and dominion of sin, and to deliver you altogether. ” Passionate and practical, Whitall Smith ’s classic of the Holiness movement focuses not on human effort but on simple, stubborn faith in the Savior and Sanctifier of the soul.
