The book look quite nice as a gift, with hard cover and nice graphics. Most of the topics everyday are helpful and practical, with good examples from everyday life. It is a helpful devotional book when you can’t think of what verses of the Bible to read for a day -it could be your go-to book.
Some things that can be improved are:
– the Bible verses are quite short. To avoid ixegesis it might be helpful to put the verses in context (E.g. a paragraph or a few verses instead of just 1 verse)
– sometimes it feels like the author just wanted to write about certain topics (which might not be the main message of the verse), but she’s just quoting a verse to support that message
– I prefer Bible versions such as ESV and TNIV, so am quite disappointed that the author uses a lot of “The Voice” translation when quoting Bible – as “The Voice” is not as mainstream a translation as some of the other translations, and so as such might not be as accurate a translation as some of the other versions of the Bible like ESV.
Overall though the book provides some interesting and practical stories. However I prefer to actually read the Bible itself for devotions – and do inductive devotion / Bible study from the actual Bible itself instead of relying on devotional books.
