This book is an answer to the prayer and an anthem of gratitude to the ministers, deacons, and company, both present and departed, of that august household of faith in which I was privileged to serve for more than three decades.

I well remember the day, fourteen years ago and new to Georgia, that I received an invitation from Bruce Morgan to come to Griffin and preach for him. He could not have known what an honor that was for me. Bruce is the dean of Georgia pulpiteers and the best example I know of what it means to be an effective pastor. One can only imagine how thrilled I was a few years later when he moved to Gainesville and into our congregation after his retirement. Since then he has been my partner in prayer, a steady source of inspiration, a wealth of wisdom, and the best friend a pastor can look upon in the pews week after week—that is, when he’s not off preaching somewhere. I have learned and grown every time I’ve heard or read his sermons. He creates only one problem for me: envy! I envy his biblical insight and rhetorical style. Anyone reading his sermons will see what I mean. Bruce Morgan is a homiletical master. I’m using his sermons as daily readings and am better for it.

His thoughts and ideas are supported by quotes and illustrations from scripture and a variety of poets and writers. If one is searching for words of inspiration and encouragement during these challenging days, this book is a must read.

I have found this book to be the best source of my morning devotions. Each chapter contains scripture, a brief explanation, a life application, and a prayer. Thank you, Bruce Morgan, for making this available.
