About the author

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

Book of short stories from a wide range of authors. If you're looking for a Max Lucado book, look elsewhere. Range of philosophies here, diverse authors, didn't always like their angle on the verse, but overall interesting book.
Three stars because I just couldn't get into the short story jumping of topics, but if your into those, then likely higher for you.

A nice little devotional with sections in good amounts for daily reading. Took me about a month to finish it. A wide variety of authors contributed. I will probably read this again at some point.

I would have liked to have given this book a 4-star rating, but was a bit hesitant because I know that some of the authors have joined the "not-so-new-age", emergent, contemplative, mystical trend in the Body of Christ. I prayed for discernment each time I picked up this book. That considered, I cannot wholeheartedly recommend it.

I read this book slowly because I wanted to read one chapter per day. I wanted to concentrate on each lesson and let it settle in my soul before moving on. So this was part of my spiritual reading for Lent 2017. I found the lessons to be challenging and uplifting at the same time. Good spiritual reflections for those readers wanting to grow in their faith.
