Описание книги

The fastest growing age group in the United States and Canada is seniors. As seniors go through the trials and tribulations that come with their advancing years, they are seeking peace, comfort, and hope. Beyond the Horizon contains a treasure chest of devotions that focus on these areas. This positive, encouraging book contains a compilation of devotional thoughts based on actual devotions presented to a group of seniors by a senior. The devotions follow a daily format. Included are devotions for Christmas, Easter, Valentine's and other special days. Beyond the Horizon is written in a straightforward style, making use of pertinent, thought-provoking illustrations to engage the interest of the reader. The numerous Scripture references are used effectively to clarify, enhance, and extend the theme of the devotions. These inspirational devotions will strengthen you and bring an increased consciousness of God's daily presence in your life.
