Gary Henry is the C.S. Lewis of the 21st century. I believe his books will endure the passing of time and will be called upon many years hence when future generations need truth, direction, gentle reprimand, and a reminder of Christian living. — Anita Sewall

Gary Henry’s devotionals are the most substantive, most succinctly and efficiently expressed that I have ever read. His devotionals make me want to run to my Bible and get to know God better! My husband feels the same way; we have recommended them to many of our Christian brothers and sisters who are also now being inspired daily by them. — Barbara Edwards

I have heard Gary Henry speak, and I have read his great prose for almost 40 years. I have never been disappointed by either, for he brings the same zest and invention to both. Those who read what Gary writes will feel they have read the Gospel plainly and brilliantly explained. — Gary Watson

I have been a huge Gary Henry fan for years, and aside from God’s Word, few literary works inspire me to live the Christian life like Gary’s . . . I classify his works with some of the greats like Tozier and Lewis in regard to spiritual insight — heady company I know, but that’s where I stand. God has blessed him with ability and us with the opportunity to share his thoughts. — Mark Bailey

Gary’s writings cover the same truths emphasized by Francis Chan and Timothy Keller, but from a well-grounded and much more biblical perspective. Gary is the only writer I know of that has the talent and ability to provide a balanced perspective on these themes that can provide our young families with a sound role model. — Ken Craig

The encouragement I have received from Gary’s blogs, websites, and articles cannot be measured. In times of discouragement, his thoughts and tips for coping have helped to lift my spirits and give me a sense of peace. He gives me a good reason for adjusting my attitude when it needs adjusting, a positive outlook when everything around me is negative. I’d be hard pressed to find Gary’s kind of help anywhere else on the internet. He has been and continues to be a blessing to us all. I need to read Gary’s articles. — Della Lipe
