MWSA Review
That old adage "you can't judge a book by its cover" certainly applies to "Bible Promises for Solders". And by cover -- I mean size. This book may be small, but it packs one heck of a hefty wallop! It is not only a wonderful teaching tool, but is a great source of comfort and inspiration as well.
Author J.M. Barnes knows of what she speaks. Twenty plus years as the wife of a U.S. Soldier affords her first hand knowledge of what military life is all about -- the good and the bad.
Even readers with a sound background of Bible doctrines and truths, will be enlightened by Barnes' quotes and interpretations. Patriotic readers will find this book reaffirming and consoling. Non-patriots will be challenged, and hopefully persuaded to wave a flag and thank a soldier.
The cover is moving and ingenious -- a copy of the Bible clutched in the arm of a soldier. I found it appropriate and very effective.
It was a privilege to be invited into the heart and mind of a soldier's wife. I came away with an even deeper understanding and abiding love and appreciation for America's mighty military.
