Dr. William Perry is a prolific writer of outstanding books. His titles for Newburgh Press thus far are Christians Helping Christians, Christian Counseling for the 21st Century and Theology for the 21st Century. Each book is a must for every reader of solid Christian material.
I am happy to endorse Dr. Perry’s latest treasure, “A Journey Through The Gospels.” Every student and preacher/teacher of the Bible needs this book for the desk or the bedside table. You will enjoy reading insights and valuable lessons that many casual readers of the Bible will miss.
While this book is not lengthy you will find a delightful study of each gospel that will make you appreciate the wonderful gospel stories and love Jesus even more.To God be the glory!Dr. Glenn Mollette, PresidentNewburgh Theological SeminaryNewburgh, Indiana

Hello PB, There is still room on that holy highway ... I like the example of self diagnosis ... not just their physical condition but their spiritual as well. Shepherds would tie in well to follow Micah 6:8.
