Book Description

In STONES OF GRACE, Judy McComb weaves a deeply personal journey of faith, family and education into a powerful memoir and devotional. Through stories of pioneering a Christian school in Cape Town, she reflects on God’s faithfulness in seasons of vision, struggle, loss and renewal. Drawing on Scripture, personal experience, and the enduring wisdom of British educationalist Charlotte Mason, each chapter becomes a “memorial stone” to grace and provision. Honest, hopeful and inspiring, this book invites readers to consider how their lives can be a testimony of faith for future generations.

A beautifully written, real-life story which entertains, encourages, and challenges for change. A book to read with a receptive heart and an open mind, that invites engagement through devotionals and discussion questions and challenges readers to personal growth and the pursuit of their dreams..

Judy has a remarkable gift for weaving together biblical insight, per¬sonal experience, and timeless ideas, in a way that provokes readers to consider their own calling with fresh perspective. She writes with honesty and wisdom, drawing out encouragement for anyone called to pioneer a ministry or step out in faith. Stones of Grace will leave you with ideas worth revisiting long after you finish it. 
Sophie De Witt, Author of Compared to Her and Co-Founder of Grace Primary

This reflective, insightful book was manna to my soul. I believe it will encourage anyone who has started a Christian ministry. When opposition and challenges come, we tend to second-guess our calling, but here we find encouragement to persevere. A beautiful testament to Charlotte Mason’s philosophy and its enduring value, not just in schooling, but in all of life
Susan Keegan, Co-Founder and Director of The Vine School, a member of Ambleside, Southern Africa
In this masterful interplay of testimony, teaching, story and prac¬tice, Judy has weaved together powerful lessons for living, raising children, loving, and building hope. I was challenged to think more deeply about what I allow into my life and not to give up on my dreams. With its insightful questions, practical applications and heartfelt prayers, Stones of Grace equipped my mind and touched my heart. Judy mentions ‘Ah! Books’ — this is one of those!
Dennis Neville, Senior Pastor of Every Nation Church, West Coast
A book to bring to your quiet corner, ready to reflect, to consider, and to be encouraged by. Each chapter includes stories marking the birth and growth of the school, lessons from both literature and Scripture, as well as reflection, discussion and prayer points. Charlotte Mason’s philosophy of education talks about slowing down, pausing to pay attention and see beauty — and in many ways that is what this book does. For parents, educators, pastors, students — anyone seeking courage to enter a new season with purpose.
Kate Le Roux, Author of the Kalathan Chronicles
