Book Description
We all become like the objects we worship. How important then that Christians should be focused on the ‘Great God of Wonders’ revealed in Scripture. To think about God aright is the most exciting occupation possible for any created being’, says Maurice Roberts. In every aspect of the Christian life dealt with in these articles, Roberts’ emphasis is always on ‘the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus’. These writings, originally published in the Banner of Truth magazine, provide thought-provoking, spiritually invigorating, practical and warmly biblical reading.

Paul Farese –
This book is well written easy to follow and plump full of food and water for my soul. The chapters are long enough to deal in spiritual depth but short enough to read in 10-15 minutes. I find my self turning back to this book time and time again when I sense the world remaining sin and the devil haunting my soul. Maurice Roberts has a way to firmly yet gently lead you away from trouble and into spiritual abundance. Every Christian ought to have this book.
noah.j.morgan1 –
This book is a collection of theologically rich, spiritually practical, and deeply biblical articles on a variety of topics relating to the Christian life. Each article is thought provoking, while remaining short for quick reading. You can read the chapters in any order. This book is perfect for both devotional and spontaneous reading. Its compact size makes it easy to take anywhere. A great buy!
