Give God the Glory! Series of Books and Devotionals Wins 14th Literary Award: the National Best Books 2009 Award as a Finalist for the Religion: Christianity Category

Clarksville, MD, November 03, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Have you recently asked yourself, “What does it mean to Give God the Glory?” Do you struggle with your spiritual awareness and are you falling short of your God- ordained purpose? Are you experiencing daily challenges with living righteously? Are you adequately prepared to represent your Heavenly Father in the midst of this deteriorating society to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ? What are you going to do about it?

Today, almost anything said or done is deemed acceptable. The current trend is to keep God out of the equation. In doing so, darkness reigns in the center of this world’s affairs. Kevin Wayne Johnson addresses this important topic for society at-large: The importance of putting God first and foremost in our lives with a particular focus on five key areas: (1) In our relationships, (2) In the workplace, (3) In our families, (4) In the local church, and (5) While at recreation. Hence, the Give God the Glory! series of books and devotionals are again recognized with its 14th literary award, since its inception in 2001, by USA Books News.

A nationally recognized independent title, the 6th annual National “Best Books” awards rewards the Give God the Glory! series for its timely and consistent message to readers of all ages. For the full list of awardees, see www.usabooknews.com.
