Wonderfully Inspirational
I bought this book at 11:00 a.m. and was finished by 8:30 p.m. the same evening. Such an easy read and so truthful and full of love, laughter and tears. Catherine Marshall wrote honestly about her life and her constant struggle with her relationship with God. Her honesty was touching. One of the best books I've read in a long time.

Please read this book!!!!!!!!!
I read the book 'A man called Peter' last summer. It was a wonderful book, and I LOVED it!!!!!!!!! Then I decided to read some sermons by Dr. Marshall. I checked 'The best of Peter Marshall' out at my library and literally could not put the book down! I must say, they were at times challenging and convicting, but that's exactly what I needed. I love the way he got right to the point and said ...

When your heart is so broken you can read nothing, read this
Mainstream Christian people will be very familiar with the name, if not the writings, of Catherine Marshall. Her husband, the great Scottish orator, Rev. Peter Marshall, was Chaplain of the U. S. Senate, and a powerful man of God. He was the light of Catherine's life, and died too soon! When your heart is so broken, the grief so deep, that you cannot eat, cannot smile or stop crying, then ...

Fleming H Revell Co, 1982

Boring? Hah!!!!!!!!!
In 'Mr. Jones meet the Master', you are allowed the privelege of reading just a few of Dr. Marshall's sermons. Being only sixteen, I have not found many friends my age ready to read this book, and that is awful. When most people (Especially teenagers) hear that you're reading 'a book of sermons', they think 'boring!' Not so with this book. Last summer, I decided to read 'Mr. Jones, meet the ...

Hodder And Stoughton, 1987

Spiritually Solid!
These writings are taken from the prayer journals of Catherine Marshall. In the preface, Elizabeth Sherrill tells us that these notes reflect the author's "daily appointment" with God and were originally kept in spiral-bound notebooks of various shapes and colors. Catherine brought her dreams, goals, desires, and reflections to these times of fellowship with her Creator. Writing eliminated ...

Excellent Spiritual Insight
What a legacy this woman of God left before she went home to heaven. Her life was a life of the right priorities. This anointed book will draw many people closer to God as they read the insight she shares. Reading about the testimonies of others who have overcome encourages you in your walk with the Lord Jesus. Another theme from Holy Scripture that she emphasizes throughout the book is love, ...

Adventures in Prayer

This Adventure~Prayer~So Simple
All of my Christian walk I've known about prayer; been a part of prayer-chains, prayed when I didn't know what else to do, and have even experienced answers to prayer. Deep in my heart I've always felt that there was something more. At times, I'd wonder, why pray if God is going to carry out His will anyway? How does prayer work or change anything? This book by Catherine Marshall was an answer ...

How amazing God the Father is - His LOVE endures through ALL things!
As a self-professed non-reader, I stayed up to 3AM just so I could finish the book! How amazing God is! It is a story of a woman - a Muslim by birth, with connection to high ranking Afghanistan officials and of upper class family connections - who one day came upon Jesus Christ in a dream which began her lifelong journey to seek the true God. Bilquis Sheikh risked everything - even her life ...

Something More

A Christian perspective on good overcoming evil.
I first read Catherine Marshall's Something More about 20 years ago and have reread it and saved excerpts from it over the years. Catherine, Peter Marshall's widow, starts this book with the death of her young grand child. She then reviews her Christian walk and provides a thought provoking encounter with a loving God who can allow the young, innocent and good amongst us to die and yet ...

Loved it!
This is one of those classic novels that you could read again and again. I hadn't read it since high school twenty years ago and just re-read Christy last week. I like it even better now than I did then (and I loved it then, too). I would have loved to have had Catherine Marshall's version of a sequel (hopefully it would have consisted of a continuation of Neil & Christy's romance), but I ...

Romance and Mystery
This book has a lot of mystery and suspense and IMHO is the best one in the series! Especially because of all the romantic scenes between Neil and Christy. I also teaches a valuable lesson about acceptance and love.
