In this exciting novel, an unsuspecting cardiologist becomes
embroiled in a plot involving pharmaceuticals, international
espionage, and the Neo-Nazi movement. A scientifically accurate
twist on the average mystery story, the plot will hook all
audiences.
Looking back over nearly two millennia of British Christian
history, Welsh Calvinistic Methodism is arguably the purest example
of the Christianity of Christ and His Apostles. Scanning the era
from Daniel Rowland (1713-90) to Henry Rees (1798-1869), the author
believes that this attained its most powerful expression during the
ministry and influence of John Jones, Talsarn (1796-1857). In this
English tribute, Dr Clifford seeks to demonstrate that John Jones's
timeless testimony is precisely what is needed for a 21st century
revival of Christianity. David Llewellyn Jenkins writes: John
Jones, Talsarn: The People's Preacher tells an important story.
With encouragements for the dispirited believer on every page, Alan
Clifford may have come along just in time to rescue the legacy of
John Jones from undeserved oblivion. The appendices ... include a
section on the preacher David Lloyd Jones, John's youngest son.
Most appealing of all are the extracts from a 1907 Welsh biography
of John's wife Fanny, deftly and sensitively rendered into English
by Marian Clifford. Fanny's story, pulsing with humanity and not
infrequently moving, merits a wide readership on its own account.
This is the most heartfelt and enjoyable work I have read from this
author. It is impossible not to be captivated by his love of his
subject... All preachers ought to buy this book, but no one will
read it without spiritual profit.
