This is an adventurous life story of obedience to God's call on her life. She touched the lives of children for good, wherever she found them, both in Africa and the USA. Rowena danced through the 'Pearly Gates' after leading 20,311 kids to a first time decision for Jesus. Faced with Muscular Dystrophy, she triumphed over every obstacle, both physical and spiritual, and challenged others to follow her example. Her busy speaking schedule continued up to the very last month of her life. She was a second generation kid born in South Africa of a Norwegian grandfather and an English 1820 Settler grandmother, whose forebear was Mayor of London, Sir John Bath Staples. She had grit and determination to do what she felt was right with her life, and trained as a Registered Nurse and Midwife. After her marriage she enrolled with her husband in the South African Bible Institute, and received ordination in September 1978. Faced with the slow onset of Muscular Dystrophy, she never wavered in her calling, and impacted thousands of lives on two continents before finally ending her full life journey so triumphantly that the doctor attending her was moved to ask for the reason of the hope that she had for eternity. This book contains many of her own written accounts, transcribed from her papers after her decease in December 2007.
When the Holy Spirit leads an inspired writer to record someone's name in the Bible, there is a story of courage and tenacity; or infamy and duplicity that we can learn from. In God's Honorable Mentions, you will meet people who played a role in the events recorded in scripture. Here is the story of Judas Iscariot and his father; looking at why Judas betrayed Jesus. Meet the mysterious Melchisedek, and find out why Abraham gave him such deference. Over 50 minor players are presented as found in the Bible. We look at who they were and why they acted as they did. There is usually a story behind the story; and he set out to find this motivating force that made them significant. Here are references to people barely mentioned, their genealogy and many fun facts you may not have known. These were real people facing the same challenges you and I make every day. For the sake of helping you keep track of relationships, the author has attempted to present each person in this book in chronological order, as far as is possible. Obviously he have had to go beyond the pages of scripture to find some information about these people, but he did so cautiously, giving due consideration to the source from which his information was derived.
