Description

Jesus said, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End." The first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, as well as the twenty-two letters in between, are the inspiration for this book. Written for those struggling with anxiety, frustration, and disappointment of living through in-between times, each chapter introduces a Greek letter, a word from Scripture that begins with that letter, and a prayer practice to try.

Rev. Stella Burkhalter writes in an accessible, conversational style. This book can be employed as a daily or weekly devotional guide for those who want explore Biblical literacy. It imparts the intellectual pursuit of language learning and a more mystical way to think about the Bible.
