Cup of Cold Water: The Compassion of Nurse Edith Cavell

by Christine Farenhorst
A blend of artistic craft and scholarly research bring Edith Cavell to life. Edith fulfills the hopes of her earthly father that she would grow up to serve God in some special way. But more importantly, her faith points to a heavenly Father who directs and plans lives for His glory. When this young woman finds herself, in God's providence, as director of a nursing school in Belgium, she is just as shockingly caught up in the turmoil of World War I. Surrounded by enemy spies, Edith courageously continues to serve the Allied soldiers who desperately need her help.
