I think this would be stellar for teenagers. My wife and I decided to utilize it for the last 50 days of 2024. It was ok…nothing earth shattering. Some devotional did stand as exceptional and challenging. It was very hit or miss. I would recommend Ortlunds or Spurgeon over this for devotionals through the Psalms.
