Review Quotes:
This book is unlike most every devotional book I have ever seen: it both warms the heart and instructs the mind. E. Stanley Jones would like this book, and I think you will too.
Dr. Stephen Gunter, Director of E. Stanley Jones Professorships and Teaching Evangelist, Foundation for Evangelism
E. Stanley Jones was one of the world's most influential Christians of the 20th century. Harnish taps into the heart of his life and ministry in this accessible resource. I recommend it to all Christians who want to glimpse what it takes to follow Christ in a multi-religious community.
Dr. Jack Jackson, E. Stanley Jones Associate Professor of Evangelism, Mission and Global Methodism, Claremont School of Theology
John Harnish has done an outstanding work in putting into words the true essence of the remarkable E. Stanley Jones. His way of weaving in Jones' quotes and prayers bring to life the rich soul and spirit of the man. It is a book that is truly enriching and inspiring and brings a word we desperately need in our world today.
Betty Shannon Cloyd, former Director of the Upper Room Prayer Center and missionary to the Congo and to the Navajo People
I like this, a LOT! This is exactly the kind of book that E. Stanley Jones would write. The style speaks plainly with the opportunity for an appropriate response. Stanley would be pleased.
Dr. Robert Tuttle, author of In Our Time: The Life and Ministry of E. Stanley Jones
I remember the pure joy of reading The Christ of Every Road as a teenager in Estonia when religious books were banned. Some people managed to hide copies and shared them with us. Jones was one of my spiritual mentors in the midst of the openly atheist society. Jack Harnish offers valuable insights into the rich spiritual heritage which seeks mutual understanding based on the values of the Kingdom of God.

It is indeed a joy and honor to read Thirty Days with E. Stanley Jones. In its 31 chapters, different aspects of Jones' life and work are described with insights and implications for us in our time and place, so it becomes a valuable resource for both academic research and meditation. I wholeheartedly endorse this work of great value and significance for all Christians.
