of
Jennie Hudson Taylor: An Adventurous Spirit, Courageous Faith and a Trailblazing Call to China:
"An inspiring story of an often overlooked character.
One of the things I was struck by was how tough life was back then… how often Jennie and James Hudson Taylor (and other family members) were ill, burned out, (in Jennie’s case, pregnant), or in som" Read more of this review » |

“Many Christians are tempted to believe in billions of years because they have confidence in what the secular scientists teach. But then again, Christians readily accept the resurrection of Christ, the virgin birth, Jesus turning water into wine, and so on—all of which are rejected by secular scientists. Some might respond, “But those are miraculous events—the miracles of Christ go beyond natural law. Normal scientific procedure would not apply.” But isn’t creation a miraculous event? God spoke the universe into existence—something He does not do today. Creation goes beyond the normal everyday operation of the universe. If we arbitrarily dismiss the possibility of supernatural action by God in Genesis, then to be logically consistent, we would have to reject the other miracles in Scripture as well, including the resurrection of Christ—and the resurrection is indeed a “salvation issue” (1 Corinthians 15:14, 17).”
