""Revelations" (basically channeling) that started in Los Angeles in the late 1960's, with mystic Frances Marie Klug as his instrument." A True Mystic is a person who accepts, yet does not seek, the responsibility of total submission to God’s Will above all else. Some well-known True Mystics include Moses, Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Joan of Arc, Saint Teresa of Avila and Saint Padre Pio — all of whom dedicated their lives to accomplishing any task requested by God, regardless of the opposition and adversities they faced in the world. Mother Frances lived in total submission to God’s Will. As a Spiritual Mother, her first concern for everyone was always the well-being of their Souls. She was firm yet loving, genteel and seemingly natural, while quietly enduring great suffering and intense loneliness unknown to most others. The path that Mother Frances walked as God’s True Mystic was possible only because of her total, unconditional love for Him." (from The Miracle of Saint Joseph website) ". Very Good+ .

Yet no real systematic distribution strategy began until 1953, when he went to Japan with a fellow visionary. At a Tokyo train station, they realized that for every person they gave the gospel to, ten slipped by them. That night they prayed desperately over maps of Tokyo and all of Japan asking, “How can we reach everybody and have a measurable sense of what has been accomplished? ” This vision was given to them: Take the gospel to every home. Divide the city of Tokyo in a strategic way, and find people willing to go to every home." (from Every Home for Christ website). Very Good .

He took over a "dirty, grimy, dismal church" (The Seattle Times) that had been lost in foreclosure and transformed it into the center of a thriving religious and social community. St. Mark's gained a nationwide reputation for its liturgical music, which was broadcast weekly on the radio. Dean Leffler was vocal in many controversial issues and was an opponent of the Vietnam War. John Compton Leffler was born on May 26, 1900, in Northridge, New York, the son of a Methodist clergyman. He was afflicted with a clubfoot, but graduated from Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, and from the Divinity School of the Pacific in Berkeley, California. He was ordained an Episcopal priest in 1929. His first postings were in California. In 1942, he was one of few clergymen to speak out against the wartime internment of Japanese Americans. " "The Story of the Cross, like a finely cut diamond, has many facets. It has always elicited responses as varied as the human souls who hear it and meditate upon it. These meditations in the first person are an attempt to enter into the minds and souls of seven witnesses to Our Lord's Passion." ; Signed by Author. Very Good .

The dust jacket is mostly clean and bright, but has a couple of small nicks / tears to the spine ends and cover edges. "After his conversion to theism in 1929, Lewis converted to Christianity in 1931, following a long discussion during a late-night walk along Addison's Walk with close friends Tolkien and Hugo Dyson. He records making a specific commitment to Christian belief while on his way to the zoo with his brother. He became a member of the Church of England – somewhat to the disappointment of Tolkien, who had hoped that he would join the Catholic Church. Lewis was a committed Anglican who upheld a largely orthodox Anglican theology, though in his apologetic writings, he made an effort to avoid espousing any one denomination. In his later writings, some believe that he proposed ideas such as purification of venial sins after death in purgatory (The Great Divorce and Letters to Malcolm) and mortal sin (The Screwtape Letters) , which are generally considered to be Roman Catholic teachings, although they are also widely held in Anglicanism (particularly in high church Anglo-Catholic circles). Regardless, Lewis considered himself an entirely orthodox Anglican to the end of his life, reflecting that he had initially attended church only to receive communion and had been repelled by the hymns and the poor quality of the sermons. He later came to consider himself honoured by worshipping with men of faith who came in shabby clothes and work boots and who sang all the verses to all the hymns. " (from Wikipedia).

As a curate in the parish of St Mary Abbott, Kensington, Carlile had experimented with unorthodox forms of Christian meetings and witness, going to where coachmen, valets and others would take their evening stroll and holding open air services, persuading onlookers to say the Scripture readings, and training working people to preach. Carlile wanted to share the Gospel with people who wouldn't dream of setting foot inside a church and training people of the same class—ordinary lay people—as evangelists.

There is some light bumping and rubbing to the spine ends and corners of the book covers. The text pages are clean and bright.

The spine of the book is mostly missing, and both the front and rear flap joints have long tears. Ther are chips, tears, edge wear, and basic wear and tear. "Lofts chose to release her murder-mystery novels under the pen name Peter Curtis because she did not want the readers of her historic fiction to pick up a murder-mystery novel and expect classic Lofts historical fiction. However, the murders still show characteristic Lofts elements. Most of her historical novels fall into two general categories: biographical novels about queens, among them Anne Boleyn, Isabella I of Castile, and Catherine of Aragon; and novels set in East Anglia centered around the fictitious town of Baildon (patterned largely on Bury St. Edmunds). Her creation of this fictitious area of England is reminiscent of Thomas Hardy's creation of "Wessex"; and her use of recurring characters such that the protagonist of one novel appears as a secondary character in others is even more reminiscent of William Faulkner's work set in "Yoknapatawpha County," Mississippi. Lofts' work set in East Anglia in the 1930s and 1940s shows great concern with the very poor in society and their inability to change their conditions. Her approach suggests an interest in the social reform that became a feature of British post-war society" (from Wikipedia). Very Good in Fair dust jacket .
