One of my all-time favorite books. Great illustrations, and a pace that does not get bogged down. I have reread this book over and over again and I still come back to it for encouragement
I just finished the book, and I am crying and speechless. I am so thankful for God inspiring David Needham to write this book. No matter what your state of mind is right now, treat yourself to a journey beyond your imagination by reading Close to His Majesty. Make sure you have tissue nearby. 🤧
