Devotions for People Who Don't Do Devotions
If you’re looking for a daily dose of saccharine-sweet devotions, this isn’t the book for you. And if you crave a spiritual taskmaster, devotions that ladle out guilt and reward in equal measure, move on to the next set of devotions.
These are devotions for people who don’t do devotions.
They are stories about everyday life—and how we can seek and find the divine in the midst of it all. The words are meant to be starting points, not megaphone-style declarations of certainty, and you’re invited to bring your own experience and imagination to these reflections. The hope is that they will help you see God’s hand at work in both the mundane and miraculous day-to-day interactions of our lives.

This is one of those books I will refer to again. I enjoyed it very much. Next time I will add some journaling as I read.
