Looking for a Gift Book of Substance? "100 Names of God"

100 Names Of God Daily DevotionalMost of us have found comfort in hymns that remind us, once again, of God’s attributes, of His names, of His unchanging character.  We sing of Him as “A Mighty Fortress,” or as our Rock; we rejoice that He is unchanging, and we never cease to be amazed at His grace.  Rose Publishing’s recent publication “100 Names of God,” by Christopher D. Hudson, is a volume of 207 pages, totally devoted to exploring its topic. The book is quite beautiful.  Each section begins with a title, followed by a verse illustrating the meaning of the name under consideration.  There is then a discussion, followed by a searching question and the section ends with a prayer, plus suggestions for further Bible reading.  As well, the readings have been organized into weeklong themes. .  For those who are linguistically studious, there is an Index to Names and Strong’s numbers.   The book would be suitable for a daily study by an individual or family, or for other small group devotional times.  I received an advance copy in return for a frank review.
