Memoirs Of An Ordinary Pastor - The Life And Reflections Of Tom Carson

D. A. Carsons father was a pioneering church-planter and pastor in Quebec. But still, an ordinary pastorexcept that he ministered during the decades that brought French Canada from the brutal challenges of persecution and imprisonment for Baptist ministers to spectacular growth and revival in the 1970s. It is a story, and an era, that few in the English-speaking world know anything about. But through Tom Carsons journals and written prayers, and the narrative and historical background supplied by his son, readers will be given a firsthand account of not only this trying time in North American church history, but of one pastors life and times, dreams and disappointments. With words that will ring true for every person who has devoted themselves to the Lords work, this unique book serves to remind readers that though the sacrifices of serving God are great, the sweetness of living a faithful, obedient life is greater still.
