In his syndicated column, "A Look at the Book," Dr. Bob Jones, Jr. brings biblical truth and inspiration to more than a million newspaper readers weekly. Several years ago we asked Dr. Jones to choose 98 of these articles and to select an appropriate poem to accompany each one. These we presented as a devotional book under the title As the Small Rain. Now, in answer to popular demand, we are offering you another choice selection of these articles. You will find that they not only afford rich spiritual reading, but that they also provide outlines, materials and aids in the construction of sermons, devotional messages and brief radio talks. - Publisher's foreword.

The 98 challenging, comforting, captivating sermonettes and heart-warming sermons in this delightful book will not only prove a rich blessing as devotional reading, but will also prove to be a rich mine of ideas, outlines and materials for messages. Reviewers commend Dr. Jones' fine writing in the highest terms: "Dr. Jones is a master -- not only of interpretation, but of expression." - Bible Banner. "Dr. Jones' style is delightfully simple and understandable, his thoughts are as clear as crystal, his spirituality is refreshing. He brings forth jewels from the Word of God with an understanding heart and an enlightened mind." - The Banner. "Dr. Jones is an inspiring devotional writer." Dr. John W. Bradbury. "... precious gems from the Scriptures that will delight pastors and preachers ... excellent devotional reading." - Grace and Truth - Jacket flap.
