Saved To Serve: The Story of Ashley and Edna Day (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781438903088)

The story in this book contains nothing spectacular. It is a simple account of two people who lived, laughed, loved and served in the second half of the twentieth century. They were not famous and did not associate with famous people. They are representative of thousands of others who quietly live their lives in a changing world. However, running beneath this everyday story is a second account which is not commonplace. It describes the way God took two ordinary people and without formal theological training placed them in a ministry that over a period of forty-five years impacted thousands of lives. It is a demonstration of what God can do if we are willing to step out in faith. The narrative takes us from a handful of folk in a country chapel to a sizable congregation in a multi-million dollar sanctuary; from a five-minute devotional on a local radio station to a Bible teaching ministry that covers much of the world. This was God's doing and it is marvelous in our eyes. As you read these pages, think back over your own life. Will you record it for the encouragement and inspiration of the generations to follow, or will your testimony fade from history and be lost for ever? The hymn-writer wrote these words: "Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away. They fly, forgotten as a dream Dies as the opening day." One way to avoid this tragic loss is to record your experiences on paper. Others will read them and be inspired to do likewise.
