Posted by On a cold, blustery day in the middle of winter, one can be at a loss for good reading! If you’re interested in some worthwhile literature, you may want to consider acclaimed Apostolic author, Shirley Buxton.
Not only does Sister Buxton have a lively and fascinating blog, http://writenow.wordpress.com/, (as well as a devotional blog http://writenow.wordpress.com/god-things-my-devotional-blog/) but she has written “A THOUSAND PIECES,” which is the story of her husband’s remarkable recovery from a tragic accident. This very popular book is going into its 4th printing.
Sister Buxton says, ”
A THOUSAND PIECES is the story of Jerry’s terrible accident, in which, as he stood by his disabled car, he was struck by a drunk driver and hurled 86 feet down the street. He lay dead in the street, but Lorraine Heter revived him. He had almost unimaginable injuries, including a broken neck and bleeding into his brain stem. He spent five months in the hospital…but if you saw him now, you would never imagine such a thing had happened to him.
This book is a powerful, emotional, faith-building story of one man’s struggle for life. It is the moving account of the trial of a family’s faith as they grapple with the enormity of his injuries and the intensity of his suffering. It also is a tribute to the countless family, friends and total strangers who participated in the healing and recovery of Jerry Buxton.”
“ROAD TALES” is a fascinating blend of Bible studies, of fiction and of biographical accounts that in a rare way speak to the philosophy of travel along the road of life, and a book that women will especially enjoy is called “LINK TO EXCELLENCE.” This book includes thoughts and advice from Shirley Buxton as well as 47 other ministers’ wives on how to be a godly woman. (As an added bonus, they each include a fabulous recipe!)
Sister Buxton says, “This invaluable book reveals the necessary elements to guide the Christian women through situations that 21st century life presents. In a pragmatic yet inspirational way are addressed such issues as personal and spiritual development, family relationships and practical guidelines for serving the church.”
