Synopsis
John Stott has been a giant on the landscape of the worldwide church for more than half a century. Here Christopher H. Wright has compiled almost three dozen brief, very human-sized portraits from leaders such as Michael Green, Samuel Escobar, Ren Padilla, Ajith Fernando.of a man who has been an example of radical disciple for generations., John Stott has been a giant on the landscape of the worldwide church for more than half a century. Here, however, are almost three dozen brief, very human-sized portraits of a man who has been a radical disciple of Jesus all those years. One of the outstanding gifts that God gave to John Stott was an incredible capacity for friendship. Never did the word single seem less appropriate than for this lifelong bachelor. So in these sketches by his friends, relatives, coworkers and worldwide partners in the gospel, we see portions of his life and personality that many have not. We see the small acts of kindness and service he performed such as regularly emptying wastebaskets and taking hours to find the old, toothless mother of a priest in India. We see the range of his interests, from Woody Allen movies to chocolate. And we see a poignant portrait of Stott as he continues to follow Christ in the midst of age and physical decline. This volume, edited by Christopher Wright, includes contributions from many international leaders such as Michael Green, Keith and Gladys Hunt, Samuel Escobar, Ren Padilla, Ajith Fernando, Peter Kuzmic and Mark Labberton. We also find insight from others less well-known to the world but very well-known to one of the great international Christian leaders of our day., John Stott has been a giant on the landscape of the worldwide church for more than half a century.

I am going to keep the card but it is either the old bait and switch tactic or the person sent the wrong one by mistake. Either way, this seller only get`s 3 stars and a neutral rating. I might possibly be able to use this card sometime.
