Critic Reviews

“... what is captured in these Living Words is Helen Roseveare's unique ability to be biblical, winsome, honest, warm-hearted, practical, compelling - all at once! She turns the gospel like a treasure in her hands, sharing her wonder at God's goodness in Christ. Her words seem to come off the page with a smile and a mischievous twinkle that says, "You know, he's good for every one of his promises."”
