In the spirit of many classic devotionals, "The Supplied Life" provides the reader with 366 daily readings that are fresh, heart-searching, and life-giving. This daily devotional reveals again and again that the Christian life is a supplied life - it is Christ Himself supplied to us day by day in every possible kind of human condition.
"The Cross and the Self" describes the depths of the self-life while at the same time showing God's way of dealing with it. God's way is the cross. God does not leave us to ourselves. He deals with us to transfer us out of our self-life into Himself as our source. This book helps us to understand the experiences of the cross in our daily life.
John and Meg are shanghaied on board the sailing ship Scotian in Quebec City, and have adventurous voyages to Jamaica and England before they reach safety in Nova Scotia.
In this exciting tale set in the 1870s, John and Meg Bains and their friend Canso arrive in Nova Scotia to find that Canso's father has died and his schooner seized for debts. Refused credit for a fishing trip by the merchant Hunter, they take the schooner and flee to Tower Rock, Newfoundland, intending to make enough money fishing to repay the debts. But then the law arrives and Canso is jailed. Their only hope is to persuade the women of Tower Rock to catch cod with them. And that is just what happens. The story ends with Canso's trial and the final showdown with Hunter.
