Counsel and Help is a collection of daily readings selected from the writings of J. R. Miller. They are specifically selected to help set your mind upon a positive path for that day and carry you through the year. Each day is arranged with space to write your own thoughts. Christian Endeavour Times: "In this admirable series of selections, averaging half a page in length, the sweetness and light which give to all the author"s work distinction seem to be focused, and the result is a little book which in its own way is without a peer." James Russell Miller was a popular Christian author, Editorial Superintendent of the Presbyterian Board of Publication, and pastor of several churches in Pennsylvania and Illinois. He was the General field Agent for the United States Christian Commission, an organization established by the Young Men"s Christian Association after the First Battle of Bull Run.
