Married for more than fifty-seven years, Astra and Robert are coauthors of the must-read Christian book entitled A Testimony-Driven Life: Biblical Stewardship Living, Discipling Disciplers of Disciplers.
Brantley and Brantley share, “Tea and Testimony is a fascinating read, from its delightful word-picture beginning to its profound and sobering two-punch combination-conclusion. The authors, DrAstra and MinisterBob, intrigue readers by
· likening an assembly of believers (and their spiritual gifts) in the local church to a blend of tea leaves in a tea pot—the purpose and product of both being to create a fragrant service to others that is God-honoring;
· establishing the scriptural basis for Christian personal testimony;
· presenting Q&A regarding seven serious questions about Christian testimony;
· sharing twenty very personal testimonies that include two contributed by their son, a Christian surgeon;
· inviting readers to journal their own reactions to the authors’ testimonies, as an act of stewardship by the readers;
· discussing how personal testimony is reflected in the holy sacraments; and
· revealing how the word of their testimony is essential to becoming a biblical overcomer, who will help fulfill God’s purpose and requirements so that the entire body of believers may be presented to Christ as His Bride.
As you read and experience this beautiful book, we pray that you will faithfully complete the exercise at the end of each personal testimony. We invite you to write down your thoughts and your learnings. We are confident that you will grow in your conviction that your testimony and ours are important to the advancement of God’s Kingdom. Take a deep breath. Find a comfortable (or maybe not-so-comfortable) chair. It’s time for Tea and Testimony.”
