Abraham's Altars and Ours (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781988928746)

Abraham's Altars and Ours is a great theological treatise and personal devotional, and was written for several reasons. First, Grant Brown believes we need to be reminded that the altars Abraham erected during his lifetime were to commemorate Abraham's many experiences of God, and using Abraham's example, we should also preserve the remembrance of God's interventions in our own life and the life of our loved ones. Secondly, as you read this book you will be inspired and encouraged to see how the Lord personally and constantly involves himself in our life in many wonderful ways, even when we find ourselves in the midst of trials and tribulations of one kind or another. Finally, as you continue to read, the Lord will help you to choose which altars to build, and also will help you tear down any ungodly ones you wish removed from your life.

[You will be greatly inspired by the story's details of the extraordinary lives of great Christians like St. Patrick (the world-renowned missionary bishop), Eric Liddell (winner of an Olympic gold medal, whose story is told in the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire), Florence Nightingale (founder of modern nursing), Mitsuo Fuchida (lead pilot of the Japanese planes that attacked Pearl Harbor before he converted to the Christian Faith), and many others. Prepare to be inspired throughout!
