D. A. Carson's father was a pioneering church-planter and pastor
in Quebec. But still, an ordinary pastor-except that he ministered
during the decades that brought French Canada from the brutal
challenges of persecution and imprisonment for Baptist ministers to
spectacular growth and revival in the 1970s.
It is a story, and an era, that few in the English-speaking
world know anything about. But through Tom Carson's journals and
written prayers, and the narrative and historical background
supplied by his son, readers will be given a firsthand account of
not only this trying time in North American church history, but of
one pastor's life and times, dreams and disappointments. With words
that will ring true for every person who has devoted themselves to
the Lord's work, this unique book serves to remind readers that
though the sacrifices of serving God are great, the sweetness of
living a faithful, obedient life is greater still.
