Devotions for Lent by Credo Communications
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
BOOK OVERVIEW:
This little booklet is 6 weeks of readings, scripture, paintings and artwork, poetry, and reflection on Christ's work at the cross. It is short enough to use for a family (with older children) devotion time once a week or easily broken down into 5 readings per week. The introduction to this small resource gives several good ways to use and apply this book.
MY THOUGHTS:
I liked the concept of this small booklet and the way it helps you focus on Christ leading up to the celebration of Easter. If you "do" lent this is a great resource to encourage you along the way, and if not, it still provides some thought provoking reading for reflection.
I can not say that I loved this book, and I would not recommend it to everyone, but I do think it can be a very useful tool to help you reflect more on Christ over a six week time period at lent or at any time of the year. I like the mosaic feel to it, but some of the art work is a little different. Again, a good thing, but most likely not everyone's cup of tea.
