Getting to Know God is a unique blend of art and religious thought.

Inspired verses from the personal journal of a Charleston artist are joined with biblical quotes and reproductions of her oil paintings. The images embrace the artist's love of nature, celebrating God's creation. Her words express life experiences while exploring the meaning of faith and the glory of God.

From reflections on the simple things in life to parenting, praising God, and dealing with anxieties, Getting to Know God is all about gaining a sense of peace by trusting in His love. Now in its second printing, it continues its positive effects on people of all ages.

When challenging times demand an oasis of hope, Getting to Know God offers an uplifting visual and emotional experience.

"An artist possesses gifts of perception and interpretation. Alice Ann's abilities in this respect are obvious. It is however, her willingness to share her deepest thoughts and meditations, in the context of her own life's journey, that makes her most gracious. Many of us marvel and see the presence and power of God in nature. It is Alice Ann who reminds us, as our Heavenly Father does, to see His majesty in our everyday lives.

Allow this artist, daughter, wife, and mother to open your eyes and hearts so that you may seek to truly know God and see all of the majesty and blessings that surround you. For this, I am grateful to Alice Ann, that little gallery on Johns Island tended by her faithful husband, Robert, and their dog, Ben. I am most grateful to our heavenly Father who brought her to us in this book. By the Grace of God indeed."
