Bookends I

“Patrick Gray has a teacher’s heart and mind. With clarity and precision, these brief devotionals will both warm and inform the reader. Readers will want to move on past the first verse of each Bible book to uncover the treasures of the remaining verses.”


—Tom Hayward, pastor, Ebenezer Baptist Chapel





“Bookends contains sixty-six short introductory remarks on the first verse of every book in the Bible. By this unique and original plan, and generally focusing on those reading the Scriptures for the first time, Mr. Gray takes us on a spiritual journey through the inspired writings. . . . Mr. Gray is to be commended for his desire to make the Scriptures accessible to a generation now, sadly, unfamiliar with the Book Divine. May this work of many hours ‘go about doing good.’”


—G.R. Burrows, retired pastor
