5.0 out of 5 stars Rest for the Wearied Soul--That's what this book is, December 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Gods Best Secrets (Paperback)

I was first introduced to this little book over twenty years ago. Dr. Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ, mentioned it in an audio tape, saying, "I usually don't recommend daily devotionals, but one has changed my life: Andrew Murrey's "God's Best Secrets." I have a well-worn hard-bound copy of the twenty-first printing (1976) that I keep coming back to and using as my daily meditation over several others by such luminaries as A.W. Tozer and J. Sidlow Baxter. Great as those are, Murray's book is simply the best--a well of faith-building insights that never runs dry. If you are evangelical in your theology, do yourself a favor and start the new year (the new millennium as I write this) with this book daily in hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars A feast for the soul, April 4, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Gods Best Secrets (Paperback)

This book is a daily cleanser for the soul. Reading just one devotional a day helps you to seek the Lord all day long. Andrew Murray does a great job on helping people realize that they need to come to God everyday and spend time with Him. It has really helped me do this, and, on top of that has brought me to a closer, more personal, relationship with God. This book covers many secrets on how to live a more profound Chritian walk. It's a great book to read over and over again because there's so much to get out of every devotional.

This review is from: God's Best Secrets (Hardcover)

[[ASIN:1869201345 God's Best Secrets]
This book is good though the way it is shown on Amazon is deceiving. The soft cover "God's Secrets" is different than the hard back copy of "God's Secrets". They were both shown together which caused me to think they were the same books since the Name of the book and the authors name was the same.

The hard back book was not the one that I wanted so therefore I lost money on the purchase. I bought 5 books but if I returned them I would have to pay the shipping and lose the shipping cost that I was charged to send the books to me. So, I decided to keep them and use as gifts.

It still upset me that I had to spend that much money on books that I thought was the hard back version of what was in the soft cover book.
