George MacDonald was one of the best-loved writers of his day. Several noted Christians of the twentieth century point to MacDonald's writing as among the profound spiritual influences in their lives. Some of todays noted and un-noted Christians do the same. A powerful influence!

MacDonald brings the reader to the feet of a wondrously loving Father who wants to be known in the heart.

"All of life's truth can be discovered in an extremely simple, two-step process: realizing who God is, then obeying Him." George MacDonald (
