Spiritual Perspectives

By Fredricka Gaines

Overview


This book is an uncommon presentation of some very common foundational tenets of Christian life and doctrine. Some writings are presented with tongue in cheek, but nevertheless presented with sincere intent to encourage or perhaps enlighten the reader. This is done through 22 thought-provoking vignettes that are intended to encourage the reader and perhaps whet the appetite for knowing and understanding God's word to a greater extent. Each topic is short and to the point, hopefully inviting the reader to share their perspective and seek further discernment. The author concludes with a collection of daily meditations that was shared with loved ones through daily text messages. This work is suitable as a family reference for discussion of the Christian faith or for general group discussion.
