Sincerely, Emily C. Davidson, Regent Adventures in reading By J. Shelby Cook " . . BUT GOD CAN" by Robert V. Ozment, Fleming H. Re veil Company, 126 pages, (2. SO. Robert V. Ozment is " a Doctor of Philosophy with the common touch," writes Dr. Charles L. Allen in his Intro duction to this inspiration vol ume. No description could more adequately epitomize the highly effective ministry of this young man. Widely read as a religious columnist for The Atlanta Constitution and some eight een Georgia weeklies, he is constantly bringing hope and encouragement to thousands. He is die pastor of the St. James Methodist Church of Atlanta. This was the first of his three books. With poignant perception and lucidity, the author deals with eight important areas: temptation, burdens, trouble, death, grid, prayer, hope and faith. These are areas which are inextrically enmeshed in our daily lives. The author writes, temptation is a tra veling companion of every person who walks down the corridor of life. It has no re gard for customs, race, or heritage. It cuddles up to the rich or the poor. Wherever you find human life, you may be sure temptation is near. In writing, style is excee dingly important. Dr. Ozment has the unusual gift of rapidly communicating with the rea der. His outline in each of the chapters is readily dis cernible, with the main points numbered. The development of his chapters is superb. Illustrations are artisti cally used to augment what he is saying. Jesus, the Great teacher, you will remember, used down-to-earth stories. This was no accident. The peo ple understood what He was saying. Rare is the man today, who can take a profound truth and express it in such living language, as did the Master. One has only to read this helpful book to realize that its author has such unique ability. Bibically founded, the truths enunciated in this volume are relevant to our lives. In the Introduction, Dr. Allen writes, "As one sits under theminis try of Dr . Ozment, he is moved to say. 'He is always preaching tome."'Directed at all who are caught up in the struggles of life, the author points the way to Christian faith. "The absence of faith," he asserts," is an open invi tation to fear, anxiety and owrry." Dr. Ozment's interpretation of great Christian truths briqg hope and encouragement to confused lives. Our problems today are perplexing and nu merous. For many, the future seems hopeless and dreary. This volume challenges us with the hopefulness of the Christian faith to meet our problems . " . . . this book provides a penetrating new portrait of Christian peach and assurance . . convicting testi mony that from one's blunders and broken dreams can be fashioned life that is filled with holy adventure and noble pur pose."
