The author asks the penetrating question that every Christian must ponder and then answer, "What will you give to the Lord?" He then challenges each of us to let that question penetrate every part of our being. The psalmist, along with the author then takes the question a step further, demanding the answer to the question must be answered in the light of this great truth "for all that God has done for you." In psalm 116 we are given several answers that we all will be able to relate to, "I will" do this and that, and these are all important answers, that each of us will be able to relate to on our Christian journey. But Dr. Baker, thinks it's time to ask that same question in the shadow of the new and complex world, that we all now live in and base our answers in the confusing light of our own experiences. So, my friends how will you answer the great question, "I will..........what? You will give.........what? What are you willing to give to the God, for all He has done for you? Along with the five "I wills" found in the psalm Dr. Baker explores twenty other "I wills" for each of us to pray and think about as we strive to give our best to the God that loves us and has saved us.
Dr. Baker is an unwavering advocate for unity in the body of Christ. In his 34 years of pastoral ministry and 22 years of involvement in Christian eduction he has never seen a more confusing array of ideas being promoted by some about who Jesus Christ really is or what he was able to accomplish for each of us on the cross of Calvary. God so loved the world, the Holy Spirit was willing to be at work but it was Jesus the Christ who gave himself as the lamb of God for each of us. The cornerstone of my life and ministry has always been John13:35, "By this shall all men know you are my disciples, if you have loved one and other." That is the door that was opened and the ministry that Jesus started when He said "It is finished". Doctor Baker is also the author of, "What We Should Do Now", "It Is Finished", "Hello My Name Is Adam, Yes That Adam", and "Hello My Name Is Abraham, Yes That Abraham".
