Abundant Living Abingdon Classics Series

Ahead of it's time. Culminating philosophical, psychological, and spiritual themes "intertwined" for the Purpose Greater than any man-made power. Highly recommended for reading and reflecting positively toward a sense of serenity. Topics cover all acedemic disciplines. **************I too have just discovered this small/short books from the vaults. A Lost Gem of information. Open-minded readers will not be disappointed. Dave

My sister, Christina, and I came across a 1952 hardbound edition of this magnificent little book just this year (2004), in the wake of our mother's Home going in 2003. Written originally in 1922, and published by Abingdon-Cokebury Press for the 1952 version we have, it is a simple, yet profoundly DEEP little book that makes one wonder how we, as a nation, could have remotely grown so far apart from God!This little book reveals that Truth is Truth for all time, and that no matter the generation, there are always those who DO know the Father's Face and Touch of His Hand! As the beginning sentences of the preface states, "Everyone may and can live abundantly. The business of life is to live and to live well and adequately and abundantly. But this age knows almost everything about life except how to live it. It is not enough to know ABOUT life -we must know HOW TO LIVE life." And those four sentences were written 52 years ago!What does it say about our age? I think, namely that we have grown so vain and self-absorbed that we have not taken the time to give of ourselves, but only sought to see what we could gain. This little book should be on everyone's coffee table wish list ... not for its looks, but the depth of the nuggets of Wisdom it contains!
