Press Reviews
This is a collection of sketches by some of those who have been closest to Stott over the years. Thus it will provide essential insights into grasping his personal legacy.
This is a delightful book; as the blurb simply says: ‘Thirty five of John’s friends open their hearts and share memories of a unique man and a truly special friend. Many brush strokes, one portrait’. Published before his death, this is a fitting tribute to a man who has fought the good fight and finished the race.
From 'Wumby Dumby', the special uncle and godfather, to the Revd Dr John Stott, international Christian statesman, this tribute contains a rich bank of memories, representing a key period in twentieth-century British evangelicalism. The human John Stott is very much in evidence also, for example in stories from the author's bird-watching exploits and relaxed holidays at his beloved Welsh home.
Many brush strokes, one portrait, this presents a compelling and multi-faceted image of a fascinating Christian leader.
