Book Review of 'The Heavens Proclaim His Glory'

'The Heavens Proclaim His Glory', created and compiled by Lisa Stilwell, was quite a surprise. I expected more of a 'coffee-table' type picture book. It was much more than that. Yes, the pictures were amazing, but along with the beautiful pictures you learn about science and creation, as well as reading scripture from the bible and inspirational quotes from great speakers and authors. Some of the contributors were Anne Graham Lotz, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, John Macarthur, Abraham Lincoln and Max Lucado.

The book was full of information on the beautiful sights in space and how they are created, with the pictures having been taken from the Hubble Telescope. There was also a lot of information on the telescope, which was very interesting as well. "The Heavens Proclaim His Glory" was a great book, and I feel I came away inspired, as well as educated on our night sky. This book would be a great gift for a wide range of ages, from school-age up.

I received this book free from Thomas Nelson publishers as part of their Booksneeze program, in exchange for reviewing it.
