Come, Walk with Me: Poems, Devotionals, and Short Walks among Pleasant People and Places

Elwood McQuaid's poetry has been read and appreciated for many years. His poems, from the award winning "One Nation Under God" to the celebrated "Death Meets the Master," are used in pulpits and publications across the nation. In this volume, Elwood's goal is not primarily to educate. COME, WALK WITH ME is offered, rather, in the spirit of Samuel Johnson, who believed "that people more often need to be reminded than informed." "Being reminded," the author says, "is the simplest and best antidote for the discouragement so many Christians are experiencing today. "The poems, mini-biographies, anecdotes, and devotional portions of COME, WALK WITH ME will take you through old graveyards, up mountain peaks, along garden rows, across verdant farm meadows, down lonely roads, and you will pause to linger for a while beside a quiet New England pond. Readers will stroll with the Lord and His disciples through the streets of Old Jerusalem and the lush hills of the Galilee, scale Masada's serpentine path, climb to Calvary's summit, and thrill to events of Israel's era of rebirth and return to their new old land.McQuaid, Elwood is the author of 'Come, Walk with Me: Poems, Devotionals, and Short Walks among Pleasant People and Places' with ISBN 9780915540471 and ISBN 0915540479.
