HELD BY THE

HOLY ONE

DEVOTIONS OF TRUST, WORSHIP AND WONDER

In a world marked by hurry, uncertainty, and quiet heartbreak, the soul longs for something steady-something holy enough to anchor us and tender enough to hold us.

Blending Scripture, theological clarity, and heartfelt reflection, author Russ W. Rice offers devotions that speak to the everyday experiences of Christian men and women seeking to grow in trust, humility, and worship. With a pastoral tone shaped through years of teaching, mentoring, and walking with believers through both joy and suffering, Russ points readers repeatedly to the character of God as the unshakable foundation for the Christian life.

Each entry is paired with an original poem by Elizabeth E. Knussman, whose lyrical expressions of faith deepen the meditative experience and create space for honest prayer, wonder, and quiet surrender.

“A steady companion for weary souls – lifting the gaze from the pressures of the present moment to the glory, wisdom, and faithfulness of the Holy One who holds all things together.”

Whether wrestling with unanswered questions, seeking comfort in hardship, or longing to behold Christ with greater clarity, readers will find here a gentle invitation to rest in the God who writes every moment of our story with purpose.

A 90-Day Devotional for Couples

Which road are you on for your marriage yours or God’s?

Inspired by the heartwarming movie No Greater Love, executive producer Russ Rice and co-writer and director Brad Silverman have created this 90-day devotional for couples to help husbands and wives dig deeper into the mystery of marriage, addressing what it means to truly love your spouse in the sacrificial and unconditional way God loves us. Each devotion invites couples to keep God at the center of their relationship, to improve their communication skills, and to strengthen their commitment to each other. Topics include commitment, trust, truth, forgiveness, reconciliation, and more. Each devotion offers a real-life snapshot from marriage, questions for discussion, and action points. A couple’s marriage will not be the same after these ninety days. Why? Because there is no greater love between two people than a love grounded in and empowered by God’s love.
