Harold St. John

by Patricia St. John

If you enjoy reading about the lives of great Christians, you’ll love this biography of Harold St. John. Harold's daughter, Patricia St. John, did the Christian world an enormous favor when she put together this fascinating portrait of her father. Somehow her portrayal manages to be exciting, inspiring, challenging, amusing and edifying all at the same time. It makes compelling reading from start to finish--hard to put down once you’ve picked it up. Harold was one of the most gifted Bible teachers of his day, and the story of his life and influence is as relevant now as ever. His life was hid with Christ in God, and out of his inward parts there flowed a river of joy and peace and blessedness that enriched everyone it touched.

I am so deeply impressed by the character of Harold St. John. What a good example to follow.

The biography of Harold St. John, the father of Patricia St. John who is well-known for her book "Treasures of the Snow". Harold loved the Lord and lived out a wonderful Christian testimony in many countries of the world. The biography is not written in the most interesting way for me, though, as it seems more like a collection of stories and incidents and memoirs of his life.
