Susanna Wesley
The Mother of John & Charles Wesley
An intelligent, strong-willed woman, Susanna Wesley suffered much in a male-dominated world while she prepared her children to succeed in it. Her fiery, independent spirit is evident as Arnold Dallimore sets the mother of Methodism within her culture and time in England.
Though Samuel Wesley figures prominently in his wife’s story, as do John, Charles, and the other children, the story remains fixed on Susanna. Excerpts from Susanna Wesley’s letters and writings of her husband and children are included along with illustrations of furniture, paintings, and other items used by the Wesleys.

George Whitefield: God’s Anointed Servant in the Great Revival of the Eighteenth Century (Arnold Dallimore)
$16.75Whitefield’s is the story of one of the most powerful preachers of all history, who may have reached more people with the gospel than anyone since the Apostle Paul. George Whitefield’s life has been described as a consuming fire that burned without end. In the wake of his preaching, revival swept across the British Isles, and the Great Awakening transformed America’s colonies.
This founder of Methodism yielded his leadership to John Wesley rather than risking the split of the movement, thus revealing his fervent commitment to the Gospel of Christ rather than his personal hopes or plans.

The Forgotten Spurgeon (Iain Murray)
$14.75From the masterful pen of Iain Murray, this is probably the most incisive, brief historical and theological volume about the great 19th century Baptist, Charles Haddon Spurgeon. In particular focusing on Spurgeon’s uncompromising stance in three major controversies of his times, realms of doctrine still vital for us to learn how to stand for today.
This book seeks to throw light on the reasons which have given rise to the superficial image of Spurgeon as a genial Victorian pulpiteer, a kind of grandfather of modern evangelicalism. Even before his death in 1892 newspapers and church leaders disputed over the features of his life which entitled him to fame. Not his “narrow creed”, but his “genuine loving character” is what is most worthy of remembrance, said one periodical, echoing the public’s general view.
Still, distortions about Spurgeon continued, and he forecast himself how the positions he held might fare in the 20th century: “I am quite willing to be eaten by dogs for the next fifty years, but the more distant future shall vindicate me.”
