 "The Lord is my light and salvation; whom shall I fear?  The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid."

Psalms 27:1

       This can be for you a day of glory. 

       Your heart can pound with the majesty of the decision you can make.

       It is a decision to take God in all ways in all your life.

       To forgive old hurts with a lovethat i greater than petty spite.

       To erase old fears with a courage that is born of a faith such as you never imagined could be.

       To feel a kinship with every human being you meet so that with a prayerful heart you can be thankful for the good and pray for a change in the evil.

       The day God becomes so real you burst with the knowledge, you wil smile a smile as wide as your soul's need, and even if your most precious dreams burst at your feet, with God in you, you are not broken with your dream.

       So be wie, take the wisdom, power,, love, goodness and glory of the heavens into your heart.

Think on this, 100 years after Voltaire died, he who had vowed to exterminate all traces of Christianity in France , the house in which he had lived was purchased and became a Bible publishing house.

                Yes, God loves you the way you are but he loves you too much to let you stay that way.

QUOTES ABOUT THIS WONDERFUL INSPIRING INFORMATIVE book

STILL RECEIVING RAVE REVIEWS 8 YEARS AFTER IT'S PUBLICATION.

"Positive, powerful utterances...skillfully enhancing our understanding and appreciation of Lincoln while revealing the Divine source of his strength."

        Lt. Colonel C.A. Olsen (Ret.) Asbury College (Professor Ret.)

 

"The Spiritual Abraham Lincoln is an extremely well written book that investigates what might be termed the spiritual side of President Lincoln. It's both scholarly and very readable. I came away impressed at Mr. Wyrick's portrayal of the President and with an altered and enlarged vision of the man:'

        William Hoffman, Award winning fiction writer; author of Blood and Guile, and Wild Thorn

 "Wyrick has authored a wonderful examination of the spirituality of one of American history's most devoutly religious leaders...a pleasant and readable book that has a rich depth of information."

       Maynard Pittendreigh Presbyterian minister

         "When it comes to invoking religion in support of any of their decisions, politicians need to sit at the feet of Abraham Lincoln. Reinhold Niebuhr once called him 'America's greatest theologian.' Why so great? Because he invariably distinguished between human works and the works of the Almighty. As Wyrick says, 'He wore the mantle of humility easily: because he was more impressed with what God was doing in the world than with what he, president of the United States in the midst of an awful crisis, was doing. That is why in his last major speech he distinguished between both human causes in the Civil War and the Almighty's 'own purposes.' Lincoln would have agreed that it is better to leave God-talk out of politics than to decorate human proposals with divinity. This is a book for our American time. Through his careful study of Lincoln's career, Wyrick compels us to remember that piety belongs in politics only when piety transcends politics."

       Emeritus professor at Union Theological Seminary in New York. Author of An Ethic for Enemies: Forgiveness in Politics

        "v. Neil Wyrick's fine work allows the reader to appreciate Abraham Lincoln's Christian commitment and his prophetic role in American history. Should have a wide readership."

       James H. Smylie Professor of Church History (Ret.) Union Theological Seminary, Richmond, Virginia

       "Neil Wyrick's The Spiritual Abraham Lincoln should be read by anyone attempting to understand the man who was probably the most complex person to ever hold the office of president of the United States. Dr. Wyrick is intent on demonstrating that the spirituality so often expressed in Lincoln's writings and speeches was not merely lip service to a Deity, but rather expressions of a profound faith in a real God. It was this faith that provided the wisdom, compassion, insight and sometimes steel that Lincoln would need in full measure as he led the United States through the Civil War. Dr. Wyrick's clear and unpretentious style of presentation is very much in keeping with the character ofhis subject, and in so doing, Wyrick makes his point very well that Lincoln, his beliefs, and the faith that formed them, are as relevant to a troubled America in 2004 as they were in 1863."
