208ppFaith Cook's subject is familiar to Christian literature but these pages have several factors which make them arresting and captivating. Instead of meeting with well-known names, here is a portrait gallery which includes a number who lived far from public notice. Perhaps John Bradford, Richard Cameron and Edward Payson are still remembered, but who knows of such things as John Oxtoby's fellowship with God, Wang Ming-Dao's resolution, Susannah Spurgeon's ministry of love and Catherine Boston's lonely sufferings? These pages are full of moving records from the old and the modern. View more info

We hear how they yearned to be with Christ even as their strength ebbed away. This is a challenging read! It urges those advanced in years to look forward to their own death. It urges the young who think they'll never die, to prepare for it as the saints have for generations. It will speak to the careless as it shows clearly that Christians know how to die. It echoes Isaac Watt's hymn: "I'll praise my Maker while I've breath and when my voice is lost in ... View more info
