Ferguson, Senior Minister of First Presbyterian Church in Columbia, South Carolina Living by God's Promises will be enjoyed, whether by a new Christian, a seminary student, or a saint ready to go home to be with the Lord. It masterfully weaves the voices of Puritans as echoes to the voice of our Good Shepherd whose promises are lavish and bountiful.

Hall, Senior Minister of Midway Presbyterian Church, Powder Springs, Georgia God's promises are exceedingly great and many.

What assurance, courage, and energy may come from applying oneself to these pages! --Geoff Thomas, Pastor of Alfred Place Baptist Church, Aberystwyth, Wales James A.
