Maria Takes A Stand
1914 is a tough year for twelve-year-old Maria Schmidt. Ever since the Kaiser started a war in Europe, Maria's German-sounding surname has brought her trouble at school. Even worse, her family's been threatened because of her father's union activities. In the midst of all that, however, Maria finds a noble cause to support: woman's suffrage. Maria Takes a Stand uses actual historical events to tell a compelling fictional story-of a girl who must overcome personal hardships to serve a cause larger than herself. It's a perfect vehicle for teaching lessons of American history and the Christian faith.
Maria Woodworth Etter
For Such A Time As This is the meticulously researched, tenderly written biography of the legendary Maria Woodworth-Etter, a woman before her time, who preached of repentance, salvation, holiness, healing, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Her success inspired Aimee Semple McPherson and paved the way for Kathryn Kuhlman, Marilyn Hickey, and Joyce Meyer. Historian Grant Wacker said of her, "No one commanded greater awe in the Pentecostal circles." Carl Brumback described her as "looking just like your grandmother, but who exercised tremendous spiritual authority over sin, disease, and demons." But she was also very human, as flawed and fragile as we all are. Warner strikes a delicate balance for the reader between revealing the woman and portraying her power. A must-read for every spirit-filled Christian.
