Upon returning to the UK after 20 years of gruelling service in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Helen Roseveare began her speaking and writing ministry. In the time available between trips all over the world, she wrote, amongst others,

four ‘Living’ books, the titles of which were derived from the foundational principles of WEC - Living Holiness,

Living Sacrifice, Living Faith, and

Living Fellowship. Living Words features quotes from each of these four books, each accompanied by a relevant Bible passage, making this an ideal undated devotional book.
