Footsteps in the Snow

Gordon Kell had wanted to write a series of daily Bible readings for some time, but never expected a crisis on the scale of COVID-19 to be the catalyst for this book.

When lockdown began, Gordon and his wife started a WhatsApp group called "Keep in Touch" so that Christian friends could maintain contact during the crisis. He wrote a daily post to start the day, and "Footsteps in the Snow" is a collection of the first 105 posts of these. As the days passed, he was encouraged by readers to consider publishing them as a book; so here it is!

Most of the content was written as stand-alone impressions, but there are also some short series based on characters and themes. The book can be used as a daily Bible reading aid or simply picked up and read in short bursts.

"Footsteps in the Snow" is intended to turn our eyes of faith to the Lord Jesus Christ. Gordon has always believed, since becoming a Christian over 50 years ago, that the power of the Christian life comes from daily communion with the Saviour. We become like Him by being in His presence. Central to this is allowing God to speak to us through daily reading the Bible and discovering Christ in its pages. If this book encourages its readers to do this, it will have served its purpose.
