Following the success of ‘Ears from Harvested Sheaves’ the daughters of J C Philpot (1802-1869) produced ‘Through Baca’s Vale’ which is a further volume of extracts from their father’s sermons and writings. Although the readings are very spiritual they are also practical and include vital aspects of the Christian’s pathway. Their desire was, and that of the present publisher is that these Daily Portions may be found refreshing to a weary spirit and a word of encouragement or exhortation to pilgrims journeying Zionward.
