Samuel Rutherford was a 17th Century Scottish Presbyterian preacher
whose writings have had a profound impact on Christians throughout
the generations. He was one of the Scottish Commissioners to the
Westminster Assembly, and his best-known work, Lex, Rex, had far
reaching influence. This collection of quotes, collated by editor
Malcolm MacLean, give an idea of the power his words had. Although
no more than a sentence or two, each of these quotes has a
profundity which leaves the reader thinking long after they have
closed the book. The quotations are split into topics: Jesus and
the Gospel Jesus - His Person and Work Communion with Jesus God
Christian Living Christian Service Thinking of Heaven Eternity and
Time For those who have never read Samuel Rutherford's works
before, this is a delectable introduction, encouraging you to seek
out his full works. For those who need no introduction to his
writings, these quotes are a quick reminder of the great truths he
strived to preach and the great God he strived to proclaim.
The Stations of the Cross unfold for us a story of the passion and
pain - where all sources of evil are connected: jealousy, betrayal,
cowardice, injustice, cruelty and weakness. Jesus takes everything
on himself and assumes all human suffering. The Stations of the
Cross are in the present tense: Jesus is condemned, Jesus takes his
Cross, Jesus meets, Simon carries, Veronica wipes and Jesus is
stripped. It is our tears that flow down his cheek, our pain that
is felt in his bruised, battered body. The Stations of the Cross is
a prayer in motion. They spell out for us that suffering and death
do not have the last word because God cares for all creation.

An attractive reissue of the late Bishop George Appleton's
celebrated selection of over 1,100 prayers from many centuries and
many traditions, including Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist,
Muslim, Iranian, Shinto, Classical Greek and Latin, native
American, and Baha'i. The wide-ranging contents ofThe Oxford Book
of Prayer reflect the cooperation of the many advisers who have
ensured that the choice of prayers is ecumenical in the widest
sense of the word. The prayers are arranged under headings such as
'Prayers from the Scriptures', 'Prayers of Christians, personal and
occasional', 'Prayers of the Church', and 'Prayers from other
traditions of faith', but there is also a subject index to guide
the user to prayers for particular occasions, and an index of
authors and sources. The book may thus be used for browsing or for
more structured prayer, for private meditation or for public
worship.
