Elijah in Gods Care Lesson for January 8 1922
A historic study of the prophet Elijah emphasizes faith under trial. The lesson traces his rise from anonymity to bold confrontation with Ahab, his miraculously sustained life by ravens and a widow, and the widow of Zarephath’s faith. It urges proactive generosity amid global need and urges readers to exercise heroic faith to support large charitable goals.
