Book of the Month
Manley Beasley 

Manley Beasley was a remarkable and powerful Southern Baptist evangelist who struggled for his last two decades of life with the pain and debilitation of multiple fatal illnesses. Throughout the difficulties, Beasley maintained his faith and said God was using his weaknesses for His greater glory. Beasley died in 1990 at age 58. Beasley's friend and colleague, Ron Owens, writes about Beasley from the perspective of one who watched him up close, knew his innermost struggles, and admired him greatly. The book offers excellent insight on where is God when a Christian suffers and what are the purposes of Christian suffering. The book utilities numerous personal testimonies from Beasley's friends and family members as well as his own words spoken in sermons, personal conversations, and interviews.
