The World Is Waiting for You: Celebrating the 50th Ordination Anniversary of Addie Davis - Couverture souple

This is a remarkable collection of sermons. The Baptist world has been needing these voices for a long time, and thankfully these are women who could not wait to proclaim the Gospel. They offer a more comprehensive view of God, who has been urging them to speak all along. —Molly T. Marshall, president Central Baptist Theological Seminary Shawnee, Kansas Hope for the church and the world is alive and well in the words of these gifted women. Keen insight, delightful observations, profound courage, and a gift for communicating the good news are woven throughout these sermons. The Spirit so evident in Addie’s calling clearly continues in her legacy. —Dorisanne Cooper, pastor Watts Street Baptist Church Durham, North Carolina Contributors include: Gwen Brown Molly Brummett Caroline Lawson Dean Pamela R.
