Review # 53: A Year with Jesus: Daily Readings and Reflections On Jesus' Own Words by R.P. Nettelhorst

Description: 
     A Year with Jesus: Daily Readings and Reflections On Jesus' Own Words by R.P. Nettelhorst is a book filled with one year of daily Christian devotionals. Each page (day) holds a different bible passage and a short explanation of its meaning, and in some cases, how it applies to the reader and their relationship with GOD and his son.
Review:
     Forget the little devotional desk calendars, A Year with Jesus is the new way to get close to the Lord with daily bite-sized bits of the bible. This book isn't just a random collection of Christian bible quotes, but a ten-sectioned journey through the words of Jesus Christ Himself! Topics discussed include: Love and Hate, Truth and Lies, Arrogance and Humility, Friends and Enemies, Belief and Disbelief, Patience and Impatience, Deserved and Undeserved, Good and Evil, Fidelity and Treachery, and lastly, Life and Death. This is a very complete devotional covering a good amount of the New Testament, and is written in a down-to-earth simplistic manner; great for those who want to bring a quick shot of faith into their day. Overall, I am very impressed with how R.P. Nettlehorst set this book up, and how it manages to make the reader feel closer to their Savior.
Rating: On the Run (4.5/5)
 
*** I received this book from BookSneeze in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
