Preaching Tours and Missionary Labours of George Müller (of Bristol)

At the age of 70, Müller began a series of missionary and preaching trips which took him to dozens of countries across four continents, including multiple trips across continental Europe, the United States, Canada, and the Far East. He began his travels upon realizing that his orphanages were well-funded and properly administered and could be run without him. Müller set out on his travels with the objective of “preaching the Gospel in the simplest way possible, that persons may understand how the blessing, which sinners receive through faith in Christ, is to be obtained.” He also aimed to “promote brotherly love among Christians,” reflecting his desire to heal denominational splits and theological rifts.
