Publisher's Description

When much of modern devotionals tends to be man-centered, with a pre-occupation with individual and world problems, Alive to God Through Praise restores a Biblical perspective and balance with the superb blending of words from the Bible and devotional classics, brimming with God-directed, joyful praise. A contemporary flavor permeates each page. Each Scripture passage and quote from classic devotional statements is delightfully paraphrased by the author into immediate English. The most eloquent expressions of praise from God's Word and Church history, are blended with the fresh touch of contemporary language. To the unquestioned wealth of the Scriptures is added the golden statements of Thomas a Kempis, Andrew Murray, William Temple, Edward Reynolds, St. Augustine, St. Patrick, Walter Hilton, A. W. Tozer, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, and John Newton.
