Everyday Holy -- my REVIEW

This pretty little devotional boook by Melanie Shankle is a great addition to a Bible reading plan and will help you to turn your mind toward godly things and help you to think Biblically throughout the day when you encounter different situations.

The book is set up as 100 different readings, one for each day.  The reading begins with a verse or a passage of Scripture and then an accompanying narrative.

The daily reading is written in an easy-to-read, chatty type style.  The reader will feel like they are talking with a friend.  The Bible verses are explained and/or applied to daily life.  One I liked in particular is entitled, "What if you said yes?" and talks about the rich young ruler--what if he had said yes to Jesus? And the parallel in our own lives -- what if we said yes to what God asks of us?

The topics covered in this devotional are things that are applicable to most people in this day and age. They touch on our attitudes, our actions, our place in our families and communities, and more.

On a superficial level, it's a very nice-looking book. The cover is attractive (make sure you check out the cute chickadee on the back cover!), there is a bookmark ribbon, and the pages of the devotional are pretty and easy to read.



I would recommend this book for you to read every day or to give as a gift!  I'll be using this with my daily devotions for quite a few more days!
