Angels: True Stories

by Robert J. Morgan

Uncover the mystery of angels and their roles in your life. Angels have been present since the beginning of time, yet we know so little truth about them. In his warm, storyteller style, best-selling author Robert Morgan presents a long-term effort of research behind the mystery of angels-in the teachings of the Bible, their role in the story of Christ, stories of how they impact Christian and missionary history, and personal accounts of their presence in our everyday lives. This is a revealing look at what angels do for us, opening our hearts and minds to their power and personalities as they carry out their purpose and God's overall plan for His kingdom.

Since this is the time of Jesus Christ's birth, I thought it was the perfect time to review a great book on Angels by Robert Morgan! This provides a detailed account of a variety of encounters with God's heavenly messengers and takes us through the Bible to show not only their purpose, creation but what they mean in the lives of believers.

Since reading a variety of books on the market about angels, this one really captured my heart because I love reading about true life encounters that others have had with angels. This book does exactly that along with showcases recorded Biblical examples of how angels have appeared in the New and Old Testament books and what role they will also play in Jesus' second coming. Whether the examples in the story are actual angelic encounters only the people involved have an idea but they do seem to follow the examples the Bible uses. Not only are they messengers of God's news or prophecy fulfillment, but they aid in caring for the believers as well, they encourage when we are in need, help protect or warn us in times of trouble, and even carry us to our heavenly home when we die.

Angels were also present at the proclamation of Jesus' birth to the shepherds and offered wisdom and advice to both Joseph and Mary before he was born. The Bible states that some have even entertained angels in the forms of strangers without knowing it and we know throughout Bible history that angels have been present during battles of God's people.

I received this book Angels by Robert Morgan compliments of Thomas Nelson Publishers for my honest review along with Net Galley and think this would make the perfect give this Christmas season. I rate this one a 5 out of 5 heavenly stars!

Angels is an excellent resource on angels as Mr. Morgan takes not only anecdotal evidence into consideration, but has also matched and brought forth angel appearances in the Bible. From there, he sets forth somewhat of a guideline.

Well done! Thank you.

I loved this book. It gave lots of hope and clearly took information from the Bible when describing the roles of Angels in our lives.

Another fine devotional book by Pastor Morgan! Once again, I found myself wondering where he gets all of these first rate illustrations?
