The One Year Praying Through the Bible for Your Kids by Nancy Guthrie

Daily encouragement for parents who realize the things they want most for their kids are things only God can do . . . so they pray.
As parents we want to protect our children; we want them to move forward in life; most importantly, we want them to take hold of and grow in Christ. And while the advice offered by parenting experts can be helpful, at some point we realize there are no simplistic formulas or sure-fire methods. We need wisdom from God’s Word for this all-important task.

In The One Year Praying through the Bible for Your Kids, trusted author Nancy Guthrie weaves together wisdom and insight from each day’s reading in The One Year Bible, providing encouragement through the triumphs and turbulence of parenting. Day by day you’ll find your dreams and desires for your children are becoming shaped more by Scripture than by the culture around you. Worry less, pray more, and help yourself to a daily dose of perspective, hope, and grace as you parent.

Here is what I thought.....
I found this devotional to be an interesting addition to my daily devotionals.  I enjoyed some of the insights and stories in each days devotional. The print is great and easy to read.  It is definitely a good devotional for everyday use.  I really only had one negative with this book.  It is very flowery and somewhat hauty in the writing.  I felt like it was just a bunch of words at times.  It was like it was somebody trying to make a show of the devotional or something.  I enjoyed it and learned from it.  I received this book from tyndale for free.  A positive review was not required. All opinions are my own.
