Anna Spafford (1842-1923): While we have talked about many exemplary and admirable women worth knowing, every now and then it’s good to look at the stories of those whose testimonies were less than stellar as an example of what NOT to do! Such is the case with Anna Spafford, wife of Horatio Spafford, most famously known as the author of the beloved hymn, “It Is Well With My Soul.” While Anna and Horatio’s lives were filled with dubious decisions and theological wanderings, they remind us that we are all deeply flawed human beings, and that sometimes the Lord works not just through us, but in spite of us!
