Fastened Like Nails Vol. 1 (F. W. Boreham)
$13.50Formerly titled Wings of the Morning.
This treasure sat on my bookshelf for over twenty years! I am grateful that during his morning address at the Guild, Dr. Zacharias quoted snippets of wisdom by Frank Boreham, whom he considers to be one of the most important theologians of his personal library.
I now place Fastened Like Nails as one of my top ten books. It describes the power of the Word of God in the lives of such men as Luther, Tyndale, Wycliffe, Knox, Whitfield, Pascal, Judson, Livingstone, Paton, Carey, Newton, Bunyan, Cromwell, Taylor, Spurgeon, and Chalmers. The background of each man’s personal conquest makes every story rich and colorful, mixed with tragedy and sacrifice.
