A timeless, little-known literary classic. As the Black Death ravaged London in 1608, the theatres closed, many people moved out of town for safety, and playwrights scrambled to find other outlets for their talent. While Shakespeare retreated to his hometown of Stratford, Thomas Dekker wrote Four Birds of Noah's Ark, a book containing fifty-six prayers for the people of London and all of England. Dekker's prayers bear witness to his deep faith and profound understanding of human psychology with a power and poignancy that few written prayers in English literature achieve. Bringing this devotional classic back into print for the first time since 1924, editor Robert Hudson has included a fine introduction, annotated the prayers, and modernised the language without sacrificing any of its beauty and simplicity. This lovely book at once surprises and enchants with its literary voice, devotional heart, and accessible writing.

What does it mean to live in the power of our weakness?

Just admitting our weakness by itself does not make us strong. The good news is this: We do not have to rely on our own strength, and our weakness doesn't have the final say in whom we become.

But it does give us a better place to identify the true source of strength.

It's a lifelong pursuit that begins when we come to grips with who we are on our own versus who we can be in Christ.

Take this journey with master storyteller Dave Clark as he weaves together experience and Scripture to help us rely on Christ as we learn to rely on his strength rather than our own.
