Simply Faith Hope & Love

This book was written after one of Doris Clark's students in her Joy Class asked for a prayer book that she could use at home for her devotionals. The quest to find one that was appropriate proved to be an impossible task. The scriptures were too long and complicated with too many thoughts and ideas on each page. The print was too small and the words were too difficult to understand. She decided to write her own book designed for the needs of her students. SIMPLY FAITH HOPE & LOVE is the result. This book is for adults with intellectual disabilities, both readers and non-readers, as well as older adults with cognitive problems, and for young readers. It is written on a third grade level. It is a wonderful gift for a special friend.
