Best Devotional.

[etexas]

I used to think devotionals were hokey, I now really like some of them. I wanted to do a poll............but there are WAY to many devotionals around! I like Spurgeon Morning and Evening. A good solid classic. Any input, I might rotate in a year, what do you good PB folk like?

I'm kind of partial to Warren's Purpose Driven Life...

I hope you know I was just kidding!

I do like some of Piper's devotionals. He has quite a few out and they are very cross-centered and deep.

 

[Blueridge Believer]

Many great ones are here! Winslow, Macduff, Philpot and other!

If you have children, one that my wife and I are going through with our daughter that we really like is Training Hearts Teaching Minds by Starr Meade. It's a devotion that works through the shorter catechism.

 

[turmeric]

Spurgeon's Faith's Chequebook.

 

[christiana]

John Calvin's 'Heart Aflame: Daily Readings from Calvin on the Psalms'.

Excellent!

Good. So we can put away the feathers and put out the fire under the pot of tar. Oh, and I had better cancel the angry mob of peasants.

Thank you, I will hae to check some of those out. It is funny............I would never read a devotional...........but after reading Spurgeon a While.....I changed my tune, I like to read it with my coffee and when I shower and dress, I have such a great reflection, in short a good way to begin the day. Better than a bran muffin!

You read a devotional while you're in the shower? How does that work?

 

[VirginiaHuguenot]

Having listed some of my favorite devotionals already, I also concur with C.S. Lewis:

For my own part I tend to find the doctrinal books often more helpful in devotion than the devotional books, and I rather suspect that the same experience may await many others. I believe that many who find that "nothing happens" when they sit down, or kneel down, to a book of devotion, would find that the heart sings unbidden while they are working their way through a tough bit of theology with a pipe in their teeth and a pencil in their hand.

You can also visit my blog, it's just a collection of devotionals I've found helpful.

You can also try True Gospel, it has Philpot's "Meditations on the Sacred Humanity of The Blessed Redeemer."

Don't forget to pick up a copy of the "Valley of Vision."

Peace,

Sandwich bag! My wife gets furious if ink gets on the shower floor!

Shameless bump, I still want some good Devotional recommendations!

That sounds very intersting I will check it out! The Anglicans much like the Presbyterians have a wealth of literature. Some of it could be viewed as classic, but there is so much of it the Presbyterian and Anglican will at best scratch the surface of it all in their lives.
