Living Faith

The quiet, consistent lives of Christian students drew me and began to convince me. The teaching in their Bible study groups and the assurance in their daily prayer meetings brought a sense of sober reality. They talked of faith as an objectivereality, not a blind leapinthedark, hoping for the best. Faith to them was something far more wonderful and real than mere believism or frightened escapism. They spoke of faith as a fact, a gift from God himself to his people to enable them to grasp and comprehend truth. Thus starts Helen Roseveares search for spiritual understanding of the world around her a world that she was to have a significant impact on once her new faith led her to Africa. Dr. Helen Roseveare has a led an exciting life, dealing with human beings in the depths of their despair and at their most joyous. She has also become a prolific author and sought after conference speaker still writing and speaking at international conferences on faith and mission. Her Living series have become instant classics and we are pleased to reprint them for a new audience. Here, Helen tells stories of faith from her experiences that help us understand its role in our lives and how to strengthen it. Also read Living Sacrifice ISBN 978 184550 2942 now back in print. The other books in this series are Living Stones, Living Holiness and Living Fellowship. As I read the books of Helen Roseveare, these powerful words come to my mind REALITY, VISION, INTEGRITY, COURAGE, ACTION and FORGIVENESS. They are all words that we need to hold centrally in our lives too. Perhaps you dont read many books but I would urge you to read this one and then to share what youve learned with others. They are a huge challenge to the indifference and lukewarmness of our day. It is necessary for the church to have IMPACT for the good of this world. Helen shows what kind of impact you too can have.
