Voices of the Faithful: Book 2

It's been quite some time since I reviewed a book for Thomas Nelson, but this book has got to be one of my favourites!  Voices of the Faithful: Book 2 is a compilation of daily devotions written by Christians serving around the globe.  The devotions are short- less than a page- and contain a focal Scripture and a short prayer at the end; there is a different devotion each day of the year (yes, there is even one for February 29th).

The stories told and the lessons shared throughout these pages are amazing; these are the people who have dedicated their lives to sharing the Good News with people around the world.  Some of the missionaries are working with unreached people groups, in hostile environments, in economically-deprived areas; some are working with the overchurched, in wealthy areas, and lands where cynicism abounds.  Regardless of where the missionaries live and serve, each and every one of them understands that the people with whom they work need Jesus- no matter their background, religion, or economic status.  Reading this devotional helps you to catch a glimpse of God's heart for the nations.  I highly recommend this devotional- use it personally, as a family, or in a small group!

It's also pretty awesome when one of your best friends has an entry in the book!
