Seeing the Invisible
By Faith Cook
Evangelical Press. 159 pages. £5.95
ISBN 0 85234 407 4

Faith Cook has chosen as her subject ten Christians whose names are little known in the history of the church. They are ordinary people to whom Christ gave persevering faith in the face of severe hardships.

Each account is brief but with sufficient detail to suggest adequate research and give an insight into the character and development of the person. She tells the stories of both men and women. One or two of the ladies were married to more famous men, e.g. Elizabeth Bunyan. Others had connections with the Wesleys and Spurgeon. Some were very young. One was a child of only 12. Others spent many years in faithful service to Christ.
