Here, we have everything from a daily devotional giving you plenty to talk about and read aloud to the family, to a book written by country singers, as they tell us their stories of knowing God. There's something here for every Christian, and the simple, down-to-earth language will make it a pleasure for everyone to read and enjoy these timeless stories, alone or in a small group.
