Synopsis

Our oldest Christian traditions invite us to listen as well as speak when we pray, yet often the Voice seems barely audible. With 25,000 copies sold since its release, Echoes of Eternity: Volume I is helping many who desire to quiet their hearts and listen. Echoes of Eternity: Volume II invites readers to continue this process with 365 short devotions for each day of the year. Each meditation includes a Scripture verse and encouraging words that speak of Christ as our anchor, the treasure of God's love, his abiding peace--and more. Sized to fit easily into a purse or pocket, Echoes of Eternity can facilitate a quiet moment alone with God at any time or place.

About this title

About the Author:

Hal M. Helms served five different congregations between 1949-1974. For twenty-three years he served on the clergy staff and lived at the Community of Jesus in Orleans, Massachusetts. During that time, he produced modern versions of a number of Christian classics including Pilgrims Progress and Confessions of St. Augustine and wrote several devotionals. Hal and his wife Helen were married for almost fifty-five years and had four children. Rev. Helms died in 1997.

Review:

In the calm and quiet places of the heart, many Christians seek to hear for themselves "the still small voice" of God. The oldest Christian traditions invite listening as well as speaking when praying. Yet often the Voice seems barely audible, drowned out by the cry of our own wishes or thoughts that call for immediate attention. Echoes Of Eternity: Listening To The Father gathers (in 365 short devotions) "impressions" of God's words from years of listening. Each meditation includes a scripture verse and encouraging words that speak of Christ as our anchor, the treasure of God's love, His abiding peace, and more. Every entry opens the door for the reader to meditate further and hear what God is saying. Echoes Of Eternity can facilitate a quiet moment alone with God at any time or place. -- Midwest Book Review
