B03752 - The Root of the Righteous - PB

First published in 1955, this book has spiritually challenged several generations and earned for itself a place among the spiritual classics. From the back cover: "[These editorials] are in no sense quiet religious essays. They were born in the midst of life; and while they have, as I hope, heaven in full view, they are never too far removed from the rough world where the children of God struggle and work and pray." --A.W. Tozer These provocative chapters appeared in The Alliance Weekly, now Alliance Life, during A.W. Tozer's editorship. First published in 1955, THE ROOT OF THE RIGHTEOUS has spiritually challenged several generations and has earned for itself a place among the spiritual classics. "A 20th century prophet" they called him even in his own lifetime. For 31 years he was pastor of Southside Alliance Church in Chicago, where his reputation as a man of God was citywide. Concurrently, he became editor of ALLIANCE LIFE, a responsibility he fulfilled until his death in 1963. His greatest legacy to the Christian world has been more than 40 books, including this one.
