"A faith can be no stronger, no more lasting, and no more fruitful than the continual growth of knowledge and relationship with Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior. That faith must be regularly stirred by deeper knowledge of the nature, work, and exaltation of Jesus. This collection of articles, written across the years of the ministry life of Brother Paden, will enrich the faith of all readers. That is the reason time was taken to collect them, edit them, and publish them together in one book to make them more accessible to growing Christians.
May your careful study of the lessons of this book bless your life and stir you on in your quest for greater knowledge of Jesus, and in the enjoyment of a lifelong relationship with Him."
