Susanna Wesley (The Sowers)

I have read a few in this series now, which I love. I chose this one because my current assignment in life is that of a mother. The life of Susanna is that if trials, with an underlying passion to serve and be used by God. Truthfully, the story is a bit depressing, but what I gathered from it most useful. Rather than step by step parenting tips, I feel like her undying passion for her God that burned throughout her life and their family's stubborn, boldness to seek righteousness even in the face of tribulation did more to shape her children than any specific method. That and the grace of God that providentially had John and Charles cross paths with the Moravians, which transformed their theology, along with the place of influence which God had placed them enabled them to change the world.

I have bought several of the Sower Series books for a friend who home schools. I read them first because they are so good. I didn't care for this one though. Susanna Wesley may well have written and told her sons about good parenting; but in this day and age the expression of 'beating a child' is not understood as she meant it. ( At least I hope not). I cannot find the book right at this moment to give a page reference but I can say, it is the ONLY Sower Series book I WILL NOT be sending to my friend.

This is a book I have been waiting for. Learning how Susanna raised her children and her undying faith in God is the encouragement I need. What a great example she has been and her dedication proved thru her children.

History of a fine Christian mother who raised a very large family and provided an outstanding example of commitment to her Christian values.

Love the story. The book is in an excellent shape, and had no problems with this order at all. I do recommend this seller.

This is an interesting, well written book. It ieasy to read and provides the best insights into the Wesleys that I have ever found.

Although there is quite a bit of historical material one cannot miss the deep spiritual impact of this account of Susanna and her family. After reading I felt motivated and have a new appreciation of the Wesley's and what they went through. Her complete faithful life was inspiring and we see what God can do with that kind of life centered on Him Bob Williams

Susanna Wesley is my grandmother way down the line of ancestors and I wanted to know more about her and who I was named after

Ever since I read this book I have fallen in love with Susanna and her children. I used to hear about the Wesleys but it was only when I read this book that I began to get to know the Wesleys. In addition to being a biography, the book is also a love story and a history book. It is easy reading and it also inspring. All christian mothers must read this book. I have since bought several copies and given to a few ladies. Truly an insprational book.

Happy with product and service
