A Book of Praises compels us to do just that. Joyce Blackburn has compiled praises from her own pen, and from those of others, to create a collection that is both uplifting and inspiring. With writings and thoughts from praisers such as William Blake, Soren Kierkegaard, John Wesley, C.S Lewis, and many others, A Book of Praises speaks with the voice of many generations. These praises proclaim everything from everyday life and the wonder of creation to the power and blessing of love. This timeless collection beautifully celebrates faith and God’s blessings, and encourages reflection and praise of one’s own.
