The book consists of Christian prayers, which have contributed to the greatness of the living Christian tradition of The Church. Just a simple examination of the bibliography provides insight into the sources of the prayers and provide great resources for further study, if desired. The book has a year's supply of a morning and evening prayer, written in the english of their time, from Old Testament to 2012. As you read and medidate through a few weeks of this collection, it is very easy to appreciate the universality of a loving and just God, Creator and Sustainer, Savior, and Judge. This book provides not only a model for praying, but enables a deeper, more intimate level of being, as it brings us into that place of holiness and communion with the unchanging and faithful God of the Bible. The prayers may be read respectfully and new revelations are possible. This book would be useful as a teaching tool, for personal devotions, or to connect the Bride with the Groom. The prayers typically short in length, easy to read. I would reccommend it.

I am That I am

I AM THAT I AM by Judy Azar LeBlanc



This book is a well documented, theologically conservative account of the eight covenants of the Holy Bible. 20% of the book is dedicated to the first seven covenants and the remaining 80% of the text is dedicated to the last covenant, the covenant of grace as revealed through Jesus Christ.  While there are multitudes of pages  written about Christ in the annuals of literacy, much less is written and explained about the previous seven covenants of the Bible.  LeBlanc has presented these seven covenants in an understandable manner, allowing for a fuller comprehension and appreciation of God's covenant of grace, the last of the eight.  I found my relationship deepening with Jesus, as I meditated and contemplated the connectedness, progression, and revelation of the character of the creator God  of Scripture.  On several pages of the book, LeBlanc uses the phrase, "it all fits together" and I believe that is the strength of the text.  She does a masterful job of providing all the pieces regarding covenantal theology and then providing how God has utilized them to fulfill His will in creation.  Much of the teaching occurring in churches throughout America is focused on individual scriptures and dare I say taken out of context when exegeted for the flock.  While this is useful, when those individual pieces of scripture are formed together into the mosaic, which the Bible is, the whole magnificent picture develops into a more clear and beautiful masterpiece.  This book has helped to accomplish that for me.  It presents the covenants as pieces of the mosaic, resulting in the beauty of God's plan, the final covenant of grace, with Jesus Christ entering time and space.  This book is useful for teaching the Word of God, but it is also useful for a personal deepening of the understanding, love, and obedience to Jesus.  Interspersed throughout the book are verses, predominantly from the New American Standard Bible and commentary provided by numerous respected theologians and pastors of both current and past eras.  I found this book challenging and informative.   Purchase it at www..BookCrash.com, rated 4.5 of 5 stars, I recommend it highly.
