""Referencing hundreds of manuscript notes written by his late father, Harry A. Renfree, a renowned Canadian Baptist leader, Gordon Renfree has produced a delightful daily devotional reader for seniors. Like many of his readers, Gordon has fond memories of the faith and spirituality of his parents, often shared at mealtimes. He captured his own father's deep piety, quick wit, and rich historical acumen as he reworked his father's words into a yearlong devotional book. May we all glean from such faith and be encouraged for the journey that remains."" --Terry G. Smith, Executive Director, Canadian Baptist Ministries Harry A.
