Synopsis

Heaven is closer than we realize. Its boundaries overlap our own, and angels move in and out of our daily lives. If that reality seems dim to us now, it beamed for the early Christians. Through their writings, sermons, songs, and art, the ancient faithful confessed a powerful and vivid belief that angels help carry us on our journey to God. Lifted by Angels helps modern listeners glimpse angels as these early Christians did.

Goodreads review by M.G.

I found this book to be very interesting. Many have considered it dry and textbook-like. I suppose the book would be dry for those who were not as interested in the subject and who had to read it for some other reason. Because I was interested in the topic, I did not find it to be dry--at all. Miller......more


Quotes

“A beautifully written study on the unique relationship between people and angels.”
—Sheila Walsh, author, God Loves Broken People

“Miller presents us with a vision of angels firmly grounded in salvation history: active at the creation of the world, involved in its fall, ministers in its salvation, servants to the Lord Jesus, harbingers of the age to come. He succeeds brilliantly in rescuing angels from the distorting effects of popular culture.”
—Metropolitan Savas (Zembillas) of Pittsburgh

Lifted by Angels will elevate your understanding of angels and their practical role in Christian spirituality.”
—Todd D. Hunter, Anglican bishop and past president of Vineyard Churches USA
