The Promise and Passion of Christ the King: Devotional Snapshots of God's Great Plan of the Ages

Move over, Max Lucado and Rick Warren; here's an author who wants to challenge your dominance of devotional literature. "How else can I compete with them," says Edwin Scroggins, "unless I offer not only superior content, but also an exceptionally novel writing style? In this book, I used a style that allowed me to focus and format my subject material in a way that permits the reader to enter the narrative as a 'you-are-there' observer." To give you an up-close view of key, biblical events, the author puts you right on the stage with his sometimes fictitious, sometimes biblical actors. These characters dramatize the progression of Scriptures that trace the promise and passion of Israel's Messiah-King through the Old and New Testaments. At times poetic, at times poignant, this trip through biblical times and places unashamedly elicits emotional responses of praise to God from readers who seek inspiration for greater devotion to Christ, their own Savior-King. Read this book and be blessed.
