Stories have been written throughout the centuries about the search for gold. But the true treasure we all need is easier to find than we think. For the wise person, treasure that will not be wasted, tarnished, or stolen can only be found in God's Word.

Join author and former educator Tracy L. Smoak on a thirty-day journey around the world as she showcases coins to highlight the beauty of the eternal treasure given to us from God. Each devotional is short but filled with riches beyond what the world can offer, as well as photographs of unique international coins and snippets of information about them.

Start your day off as one of the wise, who seeks after priceless insights offered by our Heavenly Father.

Praise for Treasures of the Wise

Tracy has a gift to see God's presence all around us every day. These devotions are filled with insightful observations relevant to everyone. I recommend this guide to discover treasures of wisdom and knowledge in the Bible.

Very nicely done collection of short devotions. Smoak shows us that there are treasures in ordinary things, and she attaches a spiritual lesson to each. The photos are beautiful and add to each entry.

The photographs are beautiful, and I love the concept of connecting a coin collection to the Bible's "treasures of wisdom." Readers will be blessed by this book!

Rhoda Preston, retired elder in the Iowa Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church

Much like a daily study of a proverb, this book should be required reading. It has an "everyman" appeal in a timely, real-world setting. I enjoyed it very much.
