Review Summary: BEAUTIFUL BOOK, but . . .
Date: 2003-11-04
Details: I picked up this book recently at a friend's house. I usually am not into those "inspirational books" (i.e. Max Lucado, etc.) or "Christian" art per say (i.e. Kinkade). But this was really something else. The photos are incredible and definitely "worshipful" in the sense that you look at it and realize that GOD has truly made a beautiful world for us, and we need to praise him for it each day. However, with that said, there are some criticisms. First, don't think that every quote in this book is from the Bible or even Christian authors. He does add some secular writers' quotes, whom you have to be discerning about. Also some statements are BIG overstatements. So be discerning when you read it. One can definitely enjoy this as a part of your quiet time, or as a gift to someone you know loves nature (or maybe is hard to shop for!)
Review Summary: It's no wonder it's a wonder!
Date: 2000-05-10
Details: Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! This book tells a wonderfully old story in a totally new way. Using a conversation between God and his bedraggled servant Job, the message of creation was never clearer. The incredible photography of Steve Terrill keeps me looking at every page long after I've read the text a dozen times. Ever wonder how to get your family, friends, and visitors to engage in spiritual conversations? Wonder no more. Leave a copy of this book out where people can see it and you'll be talking about big things in short order. Better yet, buy copies for your "hit list", your office reception area, your church library and watch the magic happen.
