I love learning about how God has allowed us to partner with his holy angels in bringing glory to Him and accomplishing His will in the earth as we pray. I have read many books on this topic and I also enjoy this author a lot and his insightful research and way of teaching so this was an easy choice. This book is a great primer on the topic of angels in general. It is broken down mainly by chapters on different types/functions of God's angels. It is very bible based and has bible reference as well as some present day accounts. I would have liked to see a lot more personal and contemporary true stories but this is a good book that I will wholeheartedly recommend.

This is a good book for Christians who are not very familiar with what the Bible says about angels. Stone covers angelic accounts in the Bible and shares many modern day stories of angels too. He has good teaching on the kinds of missions angels complete. He answers many questions about angels, such as whether we have guardian angels, how to recognize angels, and why we need messages from angels even though we have the Bible.

Even if you've read many books on angels, there may be new insights in this one. I found that to be the case for me. I had not given much thought to why we cannot regularly see spirit beings. Stone reminds us the Bible indicated humans have some type of veil or covering over our eyes preventing us from seeing spirit beings, such as angels. Elisha's servant having his eyes opened to see the chariots in 2 Kings 6 is a good example. He suggests the veil might be a part of our sin nature and that it was initiated at the Fall. (Loc 476/1467) Another insight new to me was just the reality that the Holy Spirit works on the inside of us and angels work through outward circumstances. (Loc 1440/1467)

This may be a small book but it contains lots of useful information on angels.

This book was previously published as This Season of Angels (2018).

I received a complimentary egalley of this book from the Publisher. My comments are an independent and honest review.

A surprisingly so-so read for me. As a Christian and a believer in angels as well, I'm not sure why this book didn't resonate more with me.

My thanks to NetGalley and FaithWorks for allowing me to read a copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review.

This was an interesting book, well rooted in scripture. The writing style is concise, and it's a fairly quick read. The sidebar discussions were particularly interesting, and I would have liked to have read more of these discussions. This book is not for everybody. Either you believe in angels or you don't. This book seems mostly geared to a fairly conservative Christian audience.
