Then Sings My Soul Book 3
By Robert Morgan
Published by Thomas Nelson
For more than twenty years, author Robert J. Morgan has served as the pastor of The Donelson Fellowship in Nashville, Tennessee, so he brings a pastor's reverence and appreciation of these hymns to his narrative. If you don't know what a hymn story is it is a story about the hymn writer and what may have inspired him to write the hymn. I often find myself singing songs with my kids, and then reaching for the book to find out more about what we're singing. If you enjoy singing hymns and want to know more about how the songs you sing were developed, then get this book! Morgan's writing style is easy to read and enjoy! Most of our beloved hymns were born out of tragedy, and this book will tell you each authors story about how they were inspired to write these hymns! A must read for Christians and non-Christians alike. This is excellent reading. Book gives precise history of Christianity, its developers, and their contributions. The biography of each person is detailed but not wordy. Excellent choice of the fifty people.
It's a great book and I highly recommend it to anyone, whether you are a biography buff or not. As extra incentive to get the book you should know that it comes with a "For Further Reading" list in the back where you are given books for the next step on your journey of studying these great men and women. Enjoy! It is pretty much what I thought it would be. The chapters are short and to the point which is what I was looking for so all is well w/this purchase. It is enjoyable, giving someone general information of who someone was if you never heard of them. If you already read an entire book devoted to someone in this book, then this book would not be helpful to you. It is basically beneficial for someone who does not know anything about the persons written about in this book.
