About Me

A wooded mountain path, a clear rolling stream, a faithful dog by my side, the company of family and friends, a stack of compelling books, and a steaming cup of black coffee - these are a few of my favorite things.

The Life of Elijah, A.W. Pink

In my book this is a spiritual classic. Not only was I glued to the story; I was moved and instructed in my understanding and walk with God. Pink, called by some "the last puritan," has profound spiritual clarity in this little book. Elijah's day and ours have much in common. God's ancient prophet Elijah is a great model for believers today.
A word to my brothers in ministry, you will receive great encouragement and wisdom for your work for the One True God from this short book. Do yourself and your flock a favor; read this book - slowly, prayerfully and quietly. The Spirit will bless you. I'm sure of it. If I taught pastoral theology, A.W. Pink's The Life of Elijah would be required reading. That's how important I believe the message of this book is for ministers of the gospel.

But don't dismiss this book if you are not a pastor or minister. It's not scholarly or hard but is well researched. Pink's writing flows so that you will be caught up in the remarkable story of this real, historical, flesh and blood man of God. Happy reading :).
