Teasdale, Thomas Cox, 1808-1891

Teasdale, Thomas Cox, 1808-1891

 
Teasdale was born in New Jersey. He studied at Hamilton Theological and Literary Institution (now Colgate University) in Hamilton, New York, but poor health kept him from completing his degree. He began his ministry in Bennington, Vermont (1830-32) and went on to serve in Philadelphia (1832-35); Camden and Newton, New Jersey (1835-40); New Haven, Connecticut (1840-45); Springfield, Illinois (1850-53?); and Washington, D.C. (1853?-). His work in Appalachia included pastoring Grant Street Baptist Church in Pittsburgh (1845-50) and the Thirteenth Street Baptist Church in Columbus, Mississippi, and teaching rhetoric and elocution at East Tennessee University (now the University of Tennessee) in Knoxville.

Additional information can be found in Teasdale’s Reminiscences and Incidents of a Long Life (St. Louis, MO: National Baptist Publishing Co., 1887).

    Revival Discourses

    Thomas Cox Teasdale

    In addition to his pastoral work, Teasdale was a widely-traveled evangelist; he conducted revival services throughout the country, including the Appalachian regions of such states as Alabama, Ohio, Mississippi, and Tennessee. In the Preface, Teasdale writes that “The encouraging spiritual success which has attended” these services “has created a general demand for a volume of his Revival Sermons” (p. 8). He thus published the book in the “hope of aiding some young brethren in the ministry in their efforts to acquire an effective method of preaching…and the desire to animate Christians in their great and responsible work, and conduct sinners to the cross of Christ, that they may be saved” (p. 10).
