Editorial Reviews

Review

"A direct, forceful, gripping message about why we must, and can, know the true God of this universe. Readable, helpful, effectual." -- Dr. James Kennedy, Ph.D., Senior Minister Coral Ridge Presbyterian

"This book cuts through any confusion and showcases what the Gospel of Jesus Christ is all about. It reads easy, but runs deep!" -- Joni Eareckson Tada; Author and Artist

"With great clarity, Dr. Pritchard provides an illuminating explanation of God's great plan. This is absolutely compelling, and life-changing." -- Bill Bright, Founder and President Campus Crusade for Christ International


Product Description

People have honest doubts and questions about God that deserve solid answers. How do we explain the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a way the "man on the street" will understand? Ray Pritchard does exactly that in his compelling new book, An Anchor for the Soul. With doubters, seekers, and skeptics in mind, Pastor Pritchard writes in simple language, using limited Scripture references. In a clear, straightforward presentation, he answers questions such as: What is God like? How can I know Him? Who is Jesus and what did He do? What does it mean to be a Christian? Through stories and illustrations, Pastor Pritchard very personally yet gently challenges his readers with the Good News of Jesus Christ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wondering How to Get to Heaven?, November 1, 2000
By Brian J. Bill (Pontiac, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If so, this book captures the essence of the Bible in a simple, yet straightforward manner. This book is perfect for anyone who is trying to figure out how to find that elusive peace and forgiveness that we all seem to be searching for. In a compelling manner, the author distills the message of Scripture into an easy-to-read format so that we can know our standing before God -- and clearly explains how we can be saved from our sins and on the road to heaven.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fresh Start Motivator, November 21, 2000
By Dr. Bob Neill (Covina, California USA) - See all my reviews
An Anchor for the Soul is a primer in helping seekers and new believers capture the essence of new life in Jesus Christ. We use it at our church as part of a Fresh Start Packet for new believers and seekers. It is scripturally based and presents a great help for those seeking to grow in Jesus Christ. It also gives hope to those who are looking for an anchor to base their life upon in a world desperately looking for answers to the key questions of life. It is easy reading, but compelling. I highly recommend this little book as a means of telling the Good News that can only be found in Jesus Christ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lost At Sea, July 4, 2005
By Jesse B Ellyson (Dale City, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews
Where did I come from? Where am I going? Why am I here? Who was Jesus and what does he have to do with me?

These are some of the questions Pastor Ray Pritchard has set out to answer in his book, An Anchor For The Soul. He's done a good job. There are very few actual Biblical quotes here but his book is firmly rooted in the Gospel of Christ. He makes his points clearly and concisely and his book is a pleasure to read.

For the newcomer, the curious soul wondering what it's all about, An Anchor For The Soul serves as a wonderful introduction to the world of Christianity. For the old hand, the one who's been around the church a few times, this book serves as a reminder of what it all means.

I found wisdom and enlightenment in the pages of this book. This book does not have all the answers but it will point you in the right direction. If you find yourself lost and confused, give this book a chance. You'll be glad you did.
