Anne Bradstreet by Faith Cook
At eighteen, Anne Bradstreet left England for the New World in search of religious liberty. Despite many hardships, she became famous as America's first published poet. A devoted wife and mother, she was a woman of deep spiritual convictions, seeing the Christian life as a pilgrimage with a better world to come. Faith Cook shows how this woman lived 'not to set forth myself, but the glory of God'. Anne's writings reveal the biblical truths that shaped America's early laws and underpinned its society. Her humble dependence on God and her desire to live constantly in the light of a better world yet to come, 'whose builder and maker is God', provide a challenge to our frequently materialistic, earthbound outlook.Faith Cook, the daughter of OMF missionaries, was born in China and currently lives in Derbyshire, England. She is married to Paul, an English pastor who has served congregations in Northallerton, Shepshed, and Hull.
