Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Indepth discipleship
This is a wonderful, thought provoking, action evoking devotional. Because of its indepth nature, I use it as a weekly devotional, reading and rereading the selection throughout the week and working on one of the action items. Devotional Classics is an excellent choice for intentional discipleship.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great intro to spiritual growth
Due to the fact that I was in an abusive church, I tended to distrust anything that smacked of mysticism or spirituality that bypassed the brain. Nevertheless, I have been more open of late to works that attempt to speak more to the heart and not just the head - to the whole person, if you will. This is a great intro to this end giving good pieces that are worth meditating on.

For me, I ignore the questions. I don't need more "do the following steps to be spiritual". I find just reading each piece slowly over and over for a week or so allows me to move the truths from just an intellectual understanding to change in the heart and will.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Book
This is a great book. The various authors have great insight on the subjects covered. Each reading will broaden one's perspective on living the Christian life.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Devotional Classics
How can I review this book? I have yet to receive it from Woody's Books. I have been in touch with then and they have shipped a replacement copy on 5/7 by "expedite shipping" Hopedfully I will receive it soon.
