Format

Quantity

Patricia St John was a master storyteller and her books continue to captivate readers even today, but her personal story is no less exciting than one of her fictional tales.

It is full of adventure, larger-than-life characters and exotic destinations. But this isn’t some unimaginable far-flung lifestyle – central to her story is the work of God in her life and in the lives of those she met. This is her story, told in her own words and in her characteristically engaging and gripping style.

Discover the inspiration behind Patricia’s classic tales and be challenged by her commitment to service, her desire to make Jesus known and her willingness to follow God wherever He leads.

A compelling biography for adults

While the enemy’s constant work is to isolate us from other believers and make us feel inadequate, reading the life story of a believer who has gone before us and “fought the good fight of faith” strengthens our heart, soul, mind, and spirit.

“In Her Words” is a biography written by the master storyteller Patricia St John herself and chances are you or your children have read more than one book by her (“Treasures in the Snow” or “The Tanglewood’s Secret”, for instance!).

Patricia was born in South America, spent many years in England, and went to Africa for her ministry. Reading about her life will strengthen your heart in your discipleship to Jesus. There is just something about taking a deep dive into the life of another believer and getting inspired to be steadfast in our own life.

Captivating

Patricia's story is stunning, warm, inspiring and provoking. It was an absolute joy to read, with her wonderful sense of humour and the incredible life journey she shares. You see God working incredible miracles, across continents, through humble people. Highly recommend!

In Her Words

I am glad Jonathan Carswell talked me into buying this. I can’t remember reading a biography where so much happens. To think that before I picked up this book, I had simply known Patricia St John as a Christian children’s author (which she is). But what we find in the pages of this well written (of course!) autobiography is the account of a life totally committed to the Lord and to sharing the good news of the Gospel, wherever the Lord led her. Exciting, moving, encouraging and inspiring, I highly recommend this book to all of you.

In Her Words

I knew little about Patricia St John before reading this but now I am a massive fan. She describes her life (even including how her parents got together) in a very accessible yet gripping style,filled with acts of amazing faith and courage. Living at times in London, Coventry, Malvern, and North Wales, there are parts of her life which are familiar and others (in Morocco and Lebanon) which are unknown. But the constant thread is Patricia’s faith and obedience in our amazing God and an unstoppable passion to share God’s love with all people. I cannot recommend it enough.
