Reverend Matthew Hogan

Reverend Matthew Hogan writes, How to Be a Christian in Today’s World, is aptly subtitled, Shame or Fear of Failing vs. Living Confidently in God’s Love. This sets the stage for his book that blends his own upbringing and life to shed light on ultimately God’s Word, as he and his wife came together in their faith. Growing up in the early 60’s presents an era gone by as he segways into advocating an understanding of God’s love. Admittedly, no one is spared trials and tribulations of life, as he shares intense family hardships and deaths that shaped his young childhood. Coming from a place of deep trauma experiencing the loss of his brother and the further dissolution of his parent’s marriage, he writes a book that presents a Biblical way to understand trials, maturing in Christ, and overcoming by the Spirit of God. Full of compassion and true to Scripture, readers will find his book refreshing.

Separated into four categories such chapters as: Baby Steps, I am Loved! Churchese vs. the Word,  and Walk it Out. With a Workbook section with questions in the back (6 sessions), which  can be utilized as an at home personal study guide, or even within a close group setting. He addresses real life issues, feelings, and behaviors bringing a deeper faith, and reliance upon God, His Spirit, knowing we are loved by God, as he delves into the truth of the Word of God.

This is one of those books that doesn’t smooth over subjects, but helps readers understand the immensity of God’s grace and love, offering solutions for the person that has been wounded and that has dealt with trauma. He has known this all too well in his own life, and he presents an easy read that is full of encouragement. 

In his last Chapter (p. 102), He states, “Like love, we can see that the ability to live a Godly life comes from God.” Further stating, “Everything about the Spirit will free us, guide us, and teach us, providing for Godly living.” He gives further instruction to readers that summarizes and shows readers the “how-to” relying on God by and through the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit. It is his firm belief that we cannot do “Christianity” by ourselves, but we “love” because God has loved us first. 

A Wonderful, well rounded Biblical guide to navigating life in culture that is against “walking in the light.” 

Highly recommended for all, new or mature believers,  also to those who want to deepen their faith. Living as a Christian requires growth, maturity, and then full reliance on God.

Seven Letters Declaring the Prophetic Framework of the Return of Christ

Title: Seven Letters Declaring the Prophetic Framework of the Return of Christ 
(Reprinted Edition)
By: Gregory A. Booker
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0+stars

Gregory A. Booker combines 2 of his past books, Seven Letters and Inspired Writings of a Prophet for Jesus the Christ into one book for better understanding of the author’s position, his mission and mandate, but more importantly to prepare the Church for these prophetic End Times that we are living in. 

Many have questions about where we are in this upside-down world. In this book you will find an easy format of 7 chapters “detailing”  7 Letters of inspirational writings inspired by the Holy Spirit that will become a vision and experience. They are not meant to replace the 7 Letters in the Book of Revelation in the Bible, as the author clearly states. He also encourages reader to “test the spirit” as the Bible speaks of to test that his writings are true to sound Biblical doctrine and teaching. 

Each letter contains “key scriptures” in which he gives a study and commentary of such insights that bring understanding to each chapter. Fascinating and intriguing the author gives an overview of each letter coupled with prophetic signs and current events, all culminating in the glorious return of Christ. With such chapters as: The Necessity of the Return of God’s Chosen People, Prophecy is Alive and Well and Israel is the Key, The Paradox of the Seventieth Week of Daniel, Ten-horned Kingdom Led by the Anti-Christ, Who is Mystery Babylon? Israel Promised Redemption and the Tribulation Saints, and The Christ and His Glorious Appearance. These are exciting times, yet if you are not a believer, you will be coming upon confusing times. The book encourages all to know and believe in Jesus, the Christ. He is coming and He is coming soon! 

Don’t miss this book! This is a prophetic book for the times we live in that is well-researched and written by someone who has studied the Word of God in great detail – offering us keen prophetic insight, so that all may be prepared and inspired during these turbulent times in history. 

This is a must-read book for ALL!
