A Treasury of Christian Wisdom by Tony Castle
The first part of the book is a comprehensive collection of the thoughts, ideas and aspirations of men and women which spans the centuries, nations and denominations. All are chosen to inspire and provoke thought among Christians and non-Christians alike. The second part of the book is an absorbing compilation of biographies of the most prominent Christians of the last two thousand years. Some famous, some less well-known, the lives of these men and women are recorded with concise biographical detail and a fascinating explanation of why they are remembered today. Based on two previous books, The Hodder Book of Christian Quotations and The Hodder & Stoughton Book of Famous Christians, both now fully revised and updated with new entries including Mother Teresa and Cardinal Basil Hume.
'A book not just to read but to mine for nuggetsInvaluable!' - Rob Parsons; 'This book will make good reading for anyone remotely interested in Christianity. Tony Castle deserves the utmost credit.' - Mail on Sunday; 'Provides plenty to meditate on... a rich source.' - Daily Telegraph; 'Even if one is not the kind having to preach a sermon, make a speech or write an article, there is pleasure to be found in these pages.' - Church Times
Tony Castle is Head of Religious Studies at St Bernard's High School, Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex.
