This is a book by one of our favourite people about her life and her favourite books. From being a missionary child in China to becoming a pastor’s wife in Britain, from the dangers of the one to the challenges of the other, Faith gives us an account of her spiritual experience through demanding and sometimes exhausting years.
As her five children were growing up, she discovered immeasurable help in the lives and books of such spiritual giants as C.H. Spurgeon, Richard Baxter and Thomas Boston and peppers her pages with memorable extracts from preachers and poets. This is just the sort of book her husband Paul would have loved and honoured had dementia not overtaken his late years.
