Classics Month: 'Life in Christ' by John Stott
About our contributor, Stephanie Toose:
I grew up in a Christian family, which is one of God’s
greatest gifts to me. I can’t remember a time where I haven’t known Jesus as my
Saviour and Lord.
After school I became a teacher of English as a Second
Language (ESL), and then went into the Ministry Training Strategy (MTS) scheme at Crossway
Carlingford. It was a great time of formation in my Christian life and
ministry.
I’m married to Hamish and what a joy it is! Right
now we're both at the end of our 1st year of Moore College. It's been so great
and also challenging to get stuck into the Bible more and more as we study it
at College. Our God is so big and so wonderful, I'm excited by how much there
is to learn and understand about Him and our life and faith as we walk with
Him.
Apart from those things, I love going for walks, love
being outside in the bush, near water, or reading books on the grass. I love
cups of tea from my teapot, and of course, watching many cooking shows!
I'm glad to be getting stuck into John Stott's classic
book, 'Life in Christ', and hope you are encouraged and challenged by it with
me, as we read through it together.
