'I am tempted to say that no one can dig up saints like Faith Cook! I love her stuff because she introduces me to many disciples I knew nothing about. Mrs Cook has masterful treatments of the "bigger" ones, but she also pulls out these delightful pieces of the Ebed-melech- and Onesiphorus-types, these sketches of the lesser known. -- Dale Ralph Davis "Pastor of Woodland Presbyterian Church, Hattiesburg, Mississippi"

Faith Cook's many devoted readers will certainly welcome Out of the Shadows, a collection of nine short and very diverse biographies. Many of the names will be unfamiliar, but their stories are full of interest and inspiration, each in its own way bearing witness to the faithfulness and goodness of the God whose love and mercy know no bounds. -- William J. U. Philip "Minister, St George's-Tron Church, Glasgow"

I am tempted to say that no one can dig up saints like Faith Cook! I love her stuff (like Out of the Shadows) because she introduces me to many disciples I knew nothing about. Mrs Cook has masterful treatments of the "bigger" ones (Selina, Grimshaw, and Bunyan), but she also pulls out these delightful pieces of the Ebed-melech- and Onesiphorus-types, these sketches of the lesser known. As she depicts (what is often) the sadness of their circumstances and the tenacity of their faith she encourages us to keep placing one foot in front of another for Jesus' sake.'--Dale Ralph Davis

Many of the names will be unfamiliar, but their stories are full of interest and inspiration, each in its own way bearing witness to the faithfulness and goodness of the God whose love and mercy know no bounds. Not just education, but real encouragement, will be found in these pages.'--William J. U. Philip
