Far Above Rubies: The Life of Bethan Lloyd-Jones (Lynette Clark)

Mary of Orange: At the Mercy of Kings
$8.99If you saw a girl in tears on her wedding day and then heard that the same girl was the reluctant “second in line to the throne”, you might think she was not a strong enough individual to rule. But you’d be wrong.
Mary was a young girl born to privilege, from the Royal line, heir to the throne of England, Scotland and Ireland – and destined to reign herself and change her country. She was brought up to believe in the God of the Bible rather than the fabricated teachings of priests. It was this personal faith that would be her strength as she left her homeland to marry and eventually to rule.

The Life of Martyn Lloyd-Jones (Iain Murray)
$18.75The life of Dr Lloyd-Jones has been the subject of comment and assessment in many publications and these have been taken into account. The main purpose of this further biography, however, is to put Dr Lloyd-Jones’ life before another generation in more accessible form. The big story is all here.
When Lloyd-Jones left medicine, he intended only to be an evangelist in a mission hall in South Wales. No one was more surprised than he in being called to a ministry which would eventually affect churches across the world.
How this happened is here explained, but the theme is the person described by F. F. Bruce: “A thoroughly humble man. He was a man of prayer, a powerful evangelist, an expository preacher of rare quality, in the fullest sense a servant of the Word of God.”
Behind that theme a greater one emerges. In Lloyd-Jones’s own words: “My whole life experiences are proof of the sovereignty of God and his direct interference in the lives of men. I cannot help believing what I believe. I would be a madman to believe anything else-the guiding hand of God! It is an astonishment to me.”

J. C. Ryle: That Man of Granite With the Heart of A Child (Eric Russell)
$12.50Finally – a biography of J. C. Ryle! Imagine preparing for a successful career, only to have your plans all totally undermined and left feeling that you had only one option: the Christian ministry! – and to enter it reluctantly. Then imagine learning about the grace of God only afterwards, and God somehow making you useful and effective, to everyone’s surprise! Welcome to the strange and stirring story of J.C. Ryle, English pastor of the 19th century. “It is very good to have Ryle’s story told afresh by someone who understands it so well!” – J. I. Packer.
Ryle was born into a comfortable English family background. His father was a politician and businessman. Ryle was intelligent, a great sportsman (captain of cricket at Eton and Oxford) and was set for a career in his father’s business – then disaster struck! The father’s bank fails, taking all related businesses down with it. Ryle loses his job and his place in society in a moment. One moment, a popular man with great prospects in this world – the next moment, the son of a bankrupt father, with no trade or profession. So as a last resort, Ryle is ordained into the ministry of the church, simply for something to do for a living! Who could have thought that a man who entered the ministry in such an uninspiring way could be so used of God?

John Stott: The Humble Leader*
$8.99Kicked out of Sunday School at All Souls Church as a boy, for hiding a dagger in his sock, John Stott was certainly not expected to grow up to be a pastor! Even John’s father had other hopes and ambitions for his eldest son. So John received the best education that money could buy. He went to the best schools and the best university. John’s family wanted him to be a success and a credit to the Stott name.
And he was. John was bright, energetic and dedicated. However, something happened that changed the direction of his life. Family ambitions took second place to serving the Lord Jesus Christ and working for God’s glory. So, in a bizarre twist of God’s providence the little boy who had been banished from All Souls Sunday School eventually became its minister!
John was so highly regarded in England, he even became Chaplain to the Queen. What was it that brought the naughty little Sunday School student full circle? How did he get into Time Magazine as one of the 20th century’s most influential people? Why is ‘Uncle John’ listened to by many, read by thousands and recognized across the world as a pastor, friend and leader?
