Mighty Weakness Of John Knox, The by Steven J Lawson

John Knox, the great Reformer of Scotland, the man who once was a slave in a French galley but rose to stand against powerful queens, was a small man, often ill, and frequently filled with fears and doubts. How did one so weak in body and mind accomplish so much?

The answer, Douglas Bond shows, is that Knox was strong in spirit, for he was submissive to the will of God and cared more for the glory of Christ than his own. God strengthened him in his submission to do far more than he could have accomplished in his own power.

For those who see themselves as too weak, too small, too timid, or simply too ordinary for service in God's kingdom, Knox's life offers a powerful message of hope the biblical truth that God often delights to work most powerfully through people who are most weak in themselves but most strong in Him.

Douglas Bond is the chairman of the English Department and a long-serving teacher at Covenant High School in Tacoma, Washington. He is the author of several works of fiction, many of which are aimed at young readers, such as the Crown & Covenant trilogy (which follows a Covenanter family in Scotland) and the Faith and Freedom trilogy (which follows the same family to Revolutionary America). Stand Firm in the Way of Truth and Hold Firm in a Broken World are two of his nonfiction books.
