William Morrow Company Inc

Who were the Loyalists and why were they loyal? . . .In 'The King's Friends' Wallace Brown has made extensive use of a largely untapped source, the remaining records of the claims commission set up by the British government to indemnify American Loyalists for losses caused by the Revolution. His analyses of the records of nearly three thousand claimants from all the original thirteen states are presented in a valuable appendix of statistical tables. The book's fourteen chapters rest on these tables

FACTS ON FILE+

<h4>The risk taking faith that reclaimed a community</h4> What happens when a church drops its barricades against the community? Wallace and Mary Brown decided to do just that - literally. Taking on the leadership of a church situated in the middle of three large housing estates on the outskirts of Birmingham, with crime and vandalism all around, they stepped out in faith and took down the barbed wire and high walls. Gradually but unmistakeably they saw their community begin to turn to Christ for healing and eternal life. With refreshing honesty about the hard times as well as the rewarding times, this is the gripping story of how a small, defensive fellowship became a thriving church able to plant a new congregation in a neighbouring district. With a new introduction for the 2017 edition by Wallace Brown. <h4>Endorsements</h4> 'A fine and inspiring book.' Michael I. Bochenski, Former President of the Baptist Union of Great Britain 'Whatever church you are part of, this book will bring you hope.' Nick and Lois Cuthbert, Riverside Church, Birmingham. 'I recommend the book to all who are seeking to understand the 'toil, joy and tears' that this work entails.' Rt Reverend Mark Santer, former Bishop of Birmingham. 'I was very thankful to read about the faith and commitment of Wallace and his family. I pray that it will encourage many Christians to serve in areas like the Outer Estates, and to persevere.' David Shepherd, former Bishop of Liverpool. 'Wallace and Mary's story is truly amazing. You can't help but be drawn into their lives. On the one hand we share their tragedies, trials and tribulations of persecution and vandalism of living and working in an inner city parish church and then we share in their triumphs when they trusted God and overcame everything that was thrown at them.' Amazon reviewer. Wallace and Mary Brown ministered at St Boniface Church on the Quinton estate in Birmingham for 18 years. They travelled widely to address church leaders of many denominations about the specific challenges of ministry on urban outer estates. They are now retired and live in Herefordshire.
