Lord Keep Your Mansions Just Save My Children
$20.29
Let’s say you grew up
in the home of a conservative minister. Today you are a successful administrator, an author, a camp meeting speaker with high ideals-and your son is on drugs. His 15-year-old girlfriend is pregnant. He drops out of college. Your heart is breaking.
You did what good families are supposed to do. Daily family worship. Uncle Arthur and Bible Stories. Where did you go wrong?
Once your career was everything. A big house in the country was important. But now nothing else matters. “Lord, keep my mansion-just save my children,” you pray. Things don’t get better. For years you pray, wondering what good it does. Then it gets worse.
Divorce? My children? No!
In these pages Richard O’Ffill shares how he moved through guilt, frustration, anger, and grief to hope, forgiveness, trust, comfort, and love. Now, with permission (“Dad, after all I put you and Mom through, this is the least I can do”), he tells his story.

$11.99Add to cartWhen Samuel Rutherford picked up his pen he changed lives, maybe even across continents. What he wrote influenced the American constitution but where his real power and passion was felt was in the letters that his warm pastor’s heart wrote to the people of his parish.
His book Lex Rex was burned on a pyre but his notes of comfort and wisdom were cherished by those he cared to guide and counsel.
Accused of treason he died of illness before there was time to make him a martyr and on his gravestone today, just west of the Bell Tower in St. Andrews Cathedral are engraved the striking words that sum up his life, “Acquainted with Emmanuel’s Love’.
