Devotional Review with a hint for Father’s Day.

Check out this interview review today! With Father’s Day coming up on June 19th, I thought it would be fun to have my husband read and review a devotional for men.

So this is my interview of his feedback and perspective.

In the style of my points to ponder for a review, the verbiage is in his voice. I love his creative way with words. It is not a word-for-word interview, but if you have been reading my monthly reviews, hopefully, his voice pops through.

Enjoy! And perhaps this devotional suggestion will help you with Father’s Day shopping for that special someone.

Author

There are six! I love the collaboration modeled in this book.

And they are George Bowers, Larry Dugger, Todd Gerelds, Carlton Hughes, David McCracken, and Dean T. Skoglund.

How I found this book and why I selected it.

My wife chose Everyday Grace for Men for me to review.

What did I love about it?

I really like the cover. The cover makes the devotional feel larger than it actually is. The cover art is attractive with its majestic scene.

I loved the format. Each devotion has a personal story, a verse, and a quote by a known or not-so-known person.

I also liked that there was not a specific timeline to it. It is not a read-by date or completion of one overarching topic to read each day. I was able to play Devotional Bingo (my husband’s term), and pick any day at random to read. I enjoyed that.

What I didn’t like about it?

I didn’t like the title, but after going through the book, it is the perfect title. As a man, I wasn’t looking for grace, rather wisdom. But this book gave wisdom that produced grace. So that is what you find on the pages.

Also, I had to adjust to reading Everyday Grace for Men. I was used to devotions that were a specific time frame or season of life. It was not a negative but a modification that lead to discovering how fun Devotional Bingo was.

Who would want it?

I think anyone from their 20s to their 60s would gain wisdom and grace from reading it. But it is for a seasoned believer and a nice change of pace if you are used to structured devotionals.

Who would not want it?

My wife tells me the easy answer to this is women. Also, a new Christian might want to hold off on this one for now.

Did it bear fruit?

I enjoyed it. It was well written, and I enjoyed the random writing on each page. You can use Everyday Grace for Men to go back to again and again. It is not a one-and-done but comfort to return to over a lifetime.

My (Michele) two cents:

I hope y’all enjoyed reading my husband’s review of Everyday Grace for Men. I sure had fun preparing him with the questions. I think it is safe to say this was out of his comfort zone, and I am so very thankful that he took the leap to provide you with a gift idea for those special dads or dad figures in your life.

And, a special note about this book. Our week got away from us, leaving us to complete most of my interview with him this morning. While we drank coffee, of course. He dug the devotional out of his work bag so I could get the Copywrite info and other things.

Guess what?

He left the copy on the dining room table. I texted to tell him. He was like, Oh, no! He was honestly disappointed. He truly turns to Everyday Grace for Men on a regular basis. I am so pleased!

Until next week, keep walking on mustard seeds!
