Summary

In a period of 21 years, Susanna Wesley (1669-1742) bore 19 children. Ten survived infancy. Two grew up to be influential church leaders whose legacies live on almost three centuries later.

This is the story of one of Church history's most revered women, the godly mother of John and Charles Wesley. This biography recounts the story of a woman who used her strong leadership and faith to raise well educated and spiritually disciplined children. Her unwavering devotion to God and family in the face of grief, poverty, and a sometimes difficult marriage is a tremendous inspiration.

Strong, female, leader of faith

It was a truly, a joy to hear her teaching, and her influencing the thoughts of Charles, and John Wesley, in a time when women were seen but not heard.

Wonderful role model

I was aware that Susanna Wesley was a godly and wonderful role model. This book is very insightful and summarises her life and influence really well.
