This forty day devotional is meant to be used during the Lenten season. The book itself is attractive: hardbound with a crisp white and green cover and green satin ribbon bookmark. There is a calendar at the beginning (for those who like to check off their progress) and a space for recording important insights.
Each day is not alike. Some may be just a Bible verse to ponder; others are a devotion plus reflection questions; some are for journaling. I enjoyed the variety. Topics covered included fasting, sacrifice, gratitude, obedience, our calling and more. If you’re looking for a personal spiritual discipline to undertake during Lent, this little book would be a good resource. It could also be used with a group, along with regular meeting to share and discuss the material covered.
VERDICT: 5 STARS. I would recommend this book to others, and it would make a nice gift for a friend.
