More Than Notion

This book is about the experiences of a remarkable group of people [around the small village of Pulverbach, Shropshire during the first half of the 19th century]. They did not belong to a sect or denomination or even a congregation, but the author discovered as she was led from one memoir to another and from diaries and letters that there was a divine interweaving of the lives of persons as diverse in occupation as an art tutor, clergyman, a tea merchant, a farm labourer's wife, a French court musician, a shoemaker and others. Of course their experiences were varied, but a mutual love in the unity of the Spirit bound them together under the teaching of Christ in their hearts."There are some books of which it can be said that to read them is an experience, and one is never the same again. The extracts out of the lives of these various people who came in varied ways to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ are, at one and the same time, convicting and encouraging." (Dr. M. Lloyd-Jones)
