This devotional book has done what the author intended to do because she has not only put the topic and verse for each day but has also explained what each scripture says and it's up to the reader or the the one doing devotion to meditate further on the verse.
This is a guide to help you read the bible and think about God's word every week because the writer pointed to the fact that at the beginning of each devotion there is a precept assigned to each scripture, in adding to the message for each day. So it's like a diary to help you get started with God and for me, the scriptures and the explanation are connecting well.
I have given it a 3 out of 4 because the writer knew what she wrote about

I am religious, and I greatly appreciate your different perspective. Thanks for commenting!Bianka Walter wrote: ↑10 Jun 2018, 04:00 This is such a great idea for a book. I am not a religious person at all, but I have read the Bible (I know it's weird, but I like the stories). I think that a book that takes you through the teachings one week at a time is a wonderful idea. I love that there is also room for you to write in your own thoughts.
I agree that it would be worthwhile to focus her chapters more on what the heading is. A good roadmap of what her weekly thoughts and ideas are would really tighten up the book.
Would this be something that you would use on a week to week basis?
Thanks for your great review! I really enjoyed it

I have seen a few comments that mention this. I completely agree with you.CaitlynLynch wrote: ↑18 Jun 2018, 02:48 It's a shame the author didn't stick with her own specified topic for each week. Perhaps some rearranging of the texts would help with this.
