Letters of Paul in 30 Days: CSB Edition

30 Days

by Trevin K. Wax, C.S.B. Bibles

The Apostle more letters in the New Testament come from his hand than from anyone else. He is the leader whose dramatic conversion God used to rock the early church and whose tireless efforts helped spread the gospel to the Gentiles. His letters, inspired by the Holy Spirit, continue to radiate joy and deliver wisdom, even today.  In Letters of Paul in 30 Days , author and teacher Trevin Wax has crafted a devotional experience that takes you through the letters of Paul to the early church in a “Morning,” “Midday,” and “Evening” pattern, following the Scriptural precedent for praying three times a day. This prayer journey through Paul’s letters features psalms, other songs from Scripture, confessions of faith, and written prayers from faithful Christians who have gone before us. Here is a guide to walking alongside Paul for a month by lifting our eyes, three times a day, to see and encounter the Savior who stands at the center of all his letters. 
 
Letters of Paul in 30 Days features the highly readable, highly reliable text of the Christian Standard Bible® (CSB). The CSB stays as literal as possible to the Bible's original meaning without sacrificing clarity, making it easier to engage with Scripture's life-transforming message and to share it with others.

I really enjoy reading God’s Word in the format Trevin Wax has put together.

As with the other 2 in this series, love the format of the three times a day readings and prayers. My only (slight) issue is that the letters of Paul are really better if you read them in longer chunks, since he likes his long sentences and clauses to make his point.

What a beautiful book! I have loved every book that Wax produces. "Letters of Paul in 30 Days" is a wonderful exploration of Paul's letters (in chronological order) and it maintains the rhythm of daily prayer from the previous installments. New and old prayers and creeds are sprinkled throughout the book. I was unable to keep the pace of reading each morning, mid-day, and evening, but thoroughly enjoyed reading portions whenever I was able. It is a magnificent addition to devotional and prayer time.

I LOVE this series. A liturgical prayer journey over 30 days that centers on Paul’s letters. I have seen this trilogy of devotionals shape and form me over the past six months so that I find myself accustomed to and craving that time to dive into God’s word three times a day. This was really useful for habit building for me.
