Julia E M Cameron

John Stott's Right Hand (eBook, ePUB)

The untold story of Frances Whitehead

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Frances Whitehead's partnership with John Stott has been described as 'one of the greatest partnerships in church history'. It was unique, effective, and not without humour. Frances was working for the BBC when John Stott first asked her to become his secretary. For 55 years she was his right hand: gatekeeper, administrator, typist, encourager and enabler. In his Will, Stott named her as his 'friend and Executor'. What lay behind the dogged determination, fiercely-protective streak, occasional imperious tone, and ready, warm laughter she brought to her role? This book tracks her life and glimpses her ancestry to find answers. 'This thoroughly-researched account from an insider's privileged viewpoint is an important addition to the history of the period.' (Timothy Dudley-Smith, John Stott's Authorized biographer) 'What strikes me most as I read Julia Cameron's beautifully-crafted biography, is the awesome providential sovereignty of God. What might look like random choices (a lunchtime walk; a visit to an art gallery) led to two individuals with very different life experiences and mixtures of personality traits... serving each other in multiple human and humdrum matters, and serving God's mission in their generation.' (Chris Wright, International Ministries Director, Langham Partnership)
