Description:

There are many study guides and devotionals available today for the conscientious Christian and some of them are even free so why exactly did I feel that I needed to create one of my own design. Well, in the development of this devotional journal I wanted to make it balanced and incorporate some of the things I have learned over the years about bible reading, prayer, and fellowship. Things that I noticed are just absent or unbalanced in other devotionals. This is also not a leading devotional as many that are available today are. It gives the user a direction of attention but leaves the focus of the study where it belongs, between the individual and the Holy Spirit. It also allowed me to create the devotional in such a way as to avoid certain, as Robert Pirsig puts it in “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance”, Gumption Traps. These are things that tend to cause us to loose motivation or become discouraged.
