Even through chronic health issues, she administered a book fund for poor pastors, edited and published her husband?s sermons, led a pastor?s aid ministry, made her home a hub of hospitality, and wrote five books. And as her own writings reveal, she was also a warm, charming, and fascinating woman. Susie brings this vibrant woman?s story to modern readers. Ray Rhodes Jr. examines Susannah?s life, showing that she was not only the wife of London?s most famous preacher, but also a woman who gave all she had in grateful service to the Lord.
