Description
MARCUS RAINSFORD
Thoughts on John 17
Regarded by some as the greatest classic ever written on Christ’s high priestly prayer for His people.
Review
“This book has been at my side for over 45 years. It has always been a source of comfort to me in trying times. I have given away perhaps 8 copies to my friends in their times of need.
This and several other writings of the older church leaders would be of great help to our present generation.
Become wise in the ways of our “old time Christians”. Much of what was written comes right out of the “furnace” of their personal lives.”
~Waymon Roberts
