Book: 21 Days of Grace

Author: Compiled by Kathy Ide

Genre: Devotional

Release Date: March 24, 2015

Love fiction? Looking for a devotional? Check out 21 DAYS OF GRACE, book one in the Fiction Lover’s Devotional series (published by BroadStreet Publishing Group). Fictional stories followed by brief life applications written by best-selling Christian novelists and debut authors, including Angela Hunt, Cindy Woodsmall, and Deborah Raney. Great for individual or group study.

My Perspective

I love stories that are uplifting and have a good message, but sometimes I wish I could have little stories to read on a daily basis, similar to an in-depth devotional but for fun. This is that book!! It’s perfect for lunch breaks, while you are waiting for your kids to get out of school/practice/or whatever, evening reading time, or let’s face it….anytime!! These short stories are sure to touch your hearts. I do recommend reading them in addition to your devotion, but at a different time of day. That way you are getting the most out of God’s Word, and an uplifting story for your heart.

At the end of every short story is a section called “Life Application”. It puts the story you’ve just read into perspective and in a way you can connect with. I loved this part, because although I may try to put myself into the stories, this part really makes it hit home. And I can sit there and reflect, reference a bible verse, and think of how I can use it in my life. This is a sweet and heartwarming collection of stories. Thank you authors for putting the time into this!! I hope there is more in the future to come.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. I was not required to write a favorable review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Guest Post from Kathy Ide

I’ve always loved Christian fiction, and I’ve seen the power of fiction to touch hearts and change lives, both firsthand and hearing about the experiences of others. But you know, in my quiet times with the Lord, reading a chapter from a novel just doesn’t seem quite appropriate. So a devotional with short fiction stories seemed like a great solution. And you can take these purse-sized devotionals wherever you go, to read when you have a few minutes of down time. It’s a great way to get “inspiration on the go.” And they make fantastic gifts for friends and loved ones.
