Whenever God did something amazing or a miracle in the lives of His people Israel, He told them to build an altar of stones, not only to remember His deed, but that their children would ask later what this altar was for and they could tell them of the faithfulness of their God. When I asked the Lord what He wanted me to call the book, He told me to write, as He strongly put in my heart, Altars of Remembrance, to tell all the wonderful ways He guides and protects those who are His.

Whenever God did something amazing or a miracle in the lives of His people, He told them to build an altar of twelve large stones to remember His gift to them. However, it is also for their children to ask what it is for, so they could tell them about the faithfulness of their God. When I asked the Lord what He wanted me to name this book He put strongly in my heart “Altars of Remembrance” to tell all the wonderful ways He guides and protects those who are His. Now with her second book “MORE Altars of Remembrance” it continues with the unbelievable love and faithfulness of this great God. Hannah has started a third book and looks forward to what the Lord will put in that one.

Have you taken time to think about the past and what God has done in your life? The Bible contains a special story that clearly demonstrates the importance of remembering. It is found in the book of Joshua. The story involves a great victory, deliverance, and the placing of twelve stones in a pile as a memorial that became known as Stones of Remembrance. "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." This familiar quote, by George Santayana, tells us the importance of learning from the lessons of the past. Equally important is the discovery of the richness found in generational blessings and heritage. The connecting of generations and the sharing of love gives meaning to life. I invite you to share in my life story and testimony about personal stones of remembrance. It is my prayer that you will learn from the Scriptures contained within why remembering God's faithfulness, goodness, and mercy are important keys to future victory. "Gene Garrick has taught the Body of Christ about "stones of remembrances" for some time. Now he has put those nuggets into this book. I have been blessed by his ministry over the years. I think you will be also by reading what's on his heart about learning from the past." Quin Sherrer, co-author of Lord, I Need Your Healing Power and 28 additional books. Gene Garrick is the founder of Walk The Way Ministries in Columbus, Mississippi, and Waukaway Springs Christian Retreat Center near Laurel, Mississippi. He has been a businessman for 35 years and is an ordained minister. He leads retreats and speaks to churches and groups throughout the Southeast. He can be contacted at [email protected].

The early modern period inherited a deeply-ingrained culture of Christian remembrance that proved a platform for creativity in a remarkable variety of forms. From the literature of church ritual to the construction of monuments; from portraiture to the arrangement of domestic interiors; from the development of textual rites to drama of the contemporary stage, the early modern world practiced 'arts of remembrance' at every turn. The turmoils of the Reformation and its aftermath transformed the habits of creating through remembrance. Ritually observed and radically reinvented, remembrance was a focal point of the early modern cultural imagination for an age when beliefs both crossed and divided communities of the faithful. The Arts of Remembrance in Early Modern England maps the new terrain of remembrance in the post-Reformation period, charting its negotiations with the material, the textual and the performative.

It is for musicians, singers, painters, sculptors, dancers, dramatists, writers, poets, carvers, weavers, film editors, photographers, filmmakers, architects, designers--anyone who finds inspiration in creativity. Focusing on the creative spirit within, it is designed to help you draw your inspiration from a Deeper Source. It is deeply rooted in Scripture--for the creative Christian must enter into the Word of God on a regular basis in order to know the choreographer of her steps, the crafter of her designs, the author and perfecter of her faith, and the sculptor of her creative heart, soul, mind, and body. And to know Him intimately.
