Open Your Hymnal- Devotions That Harmonize Scripture With Song

Do you catch yourself singing a song in church without paying attention to the words? Open Your Hymnal is a collection of thirty devotions that transport the wisdom of classic hymns and gospel songs into the twenty-first century.

Introduce yourself to the rich spiritual heritage that hymnals contain or gain a new perspective on songs you’ve sung since childhood. Whether you sing in the choir loft, pew, or shower, the refreshing biblical insights in this book will enhance your appreciation of the words you sing every time you open a hymnal.
