A MIGHTY FLAME: LOVE IN THE BIBLE is published by The Caribbean Pioneer in association with Printland Publishers of Hyderabad, India. It is an edited collection of originally separate articles and short essays. More than half of these have previously appeared in the Caribbean Pioneer magazine, published in Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, and after 1998 in Canada and the USA. As Mary herself explains in Chapter 1, “In 1995 I was struck down with a very rare physically disabling disease. So I have spent the past nine years in seven different hospitals and seven nursing centres in five different countries, and for many precious months nursed at home by two lovely saints in Christ. A large part of Love in the Bible was written in Cayman Brac while under the care of a dedicated Christian physician Delroy Jefferson and the wonderfully caring people of that island. Some chapters were written under very trying circumstances while a patient in Guy’s and St. Thomas’ Hospital in London”. The last essay of Mary’s in this collection was ELROY’S EYES OF LOVE, which was completed under great difficulties a few hours before her last brain seizure and six days before she fell asleep in the Lord on October 30 2004. This book has proved immensely popular. Colour and B & W illustrations.
