Аннотация
Dios ha escogido colocar su preciada grey en las manos de pastores y ancianos quienes son Sus co-pastores (1 Pedro 5:1-4). Estos hombres casados no podrían llevar a cabo su misión sin la ayuda de sus esposas; asociados con ellas pueden cumplir el rol de proteger y nutrir a la grey para que cuando «el Príncipe de los pastores aparezca, vosotros recibiréis la corona de incorruptible de gloria». Eso significa que tendrás una parte de la recompensa que recibirá tu esposo por su servicio.Tú también, querida hermana, tienes un rol significativo en la vida y en el ministerio de tu esposo. Tú tambien puedes ver a Dios hacer grandes cosas a través de tu fidelidad y de tu apoyo amoroso. Debido a que ya he estado en tus zapatos, sé que no es fácil. tenemos una especie de hermandad por lo que compartimos mutuamente. Como creyentes somos uno con el Buen Pastor, quien compró Su grey por Su muerte en la cruz; apartados de Él, nada podemos hacer; si permanecemos en Él, podemos lograr muchas cosas. Así mismo, cuanta mayor unidad haya en nuestro matrimonio con un pastor del rebaño del Señor, mayor efectividad tendremos en neustro llamado personal."Recomiento este libro con gran gozo y confianza. Estoy tan agradecida por todas las mujeres que apoyan a los hombres que trabajan ministrando a la iglesia de Dios; sé que este libro será una gran herramienta de aliento y de información". Elyse Fitzpatrick"¡Qué bendición ser uno con el pastor! Ahora sé eso, pero cuando me casí con Wayne, sólo sabía que era una bendicióon estar casada con él. Habría aceptado la bendición de ser esposa de un pastor desde antes, si un libro como este hubiera estado disponible para instruirme, aconsejarme, enseñarme y desafiarme. Ciertamente lo recomiendo a todas las esposas de pastores; les ayudará a conocer la bendición de ser la esposa de un pastor y a ser una bendición a otros". Carol Mack
Аннотация
Born in Jedburgh in 1780, Mary Fairfax was the daughter of one of Nelson's captains, and in common with most girls of her time and station she was given the kind of education which prizes gentility over ability. Nevertheless, she taught herself algebra in secret, and made her reputation in celestial mechanics with her 1831 translation of Laplace's Mécanique céleste as The Mechanism of the Heavens.
As she was equally interested in art, literature and nature Somerville's lively memoirs give a fascinating picture of her life and times from childhood in Burntisland to international recognition and retirement in Naples. She tells of her friendship with Maria Edgeworth and of her encounters with Scott and Fenimore Cooper. She remembers comets and eclipses, high society in London and Paris, Charles Babbage and his calculating engine, the Risorgimento in Italy and the eruption of Vesuvius.
Selected by her daughter and first published in 1973, these are the memoirs of a remarkable woman who became one of the most gifted mathematicians and scientists of the nineteenth century. Oxford's Somerville College was named after her, and the present volume, re-edited by Dorothy McMillan, draws on manuscripts owned by the college and offers the first unexpurgated edition of these revelatory writings.
