Audio App Daily Devotion


Book Description

Audio App Daily Devotional is the complete Bible. We have removed the verse numbers from the text itself, which gives an almost poetic feel to the Scriptures as you read, while maintaining the chapter and verse references ahead of each day's portion of Scripture. This enables you to reference and study the Scriptures in a more in-depth manner. Inside you will find an average of twenty-three New Testament verses, seven Psalms verses, three Proverbs verses, and fifty-five Old Testament verses per day. While I never recommend rushing through your time with our Lord, I felt it important to make each day's readings and portions as equal as possible, allowing you to set times throughout the day for reading in order to regroup or refocus on your task at hand. Look for and expect to hear from our Lord. Look for God to move in your life more and more as you draw closer to Him daily.

Daily Devotion


Book Description

I am not a theologian, a scholar, pastor, minister, or any of the other titles used by those who would deem themselves able to write about God. In fact, I am as far removed from those vocations as one could get. My working life has been in finance and information technology. But, as one who was pursued by God and who has been pursuing Him ever since, I have experienced an overwhelming desire to know Him and His story. I have gone to the only reliable source I know, the Bible and have been reading it through each year for over forty years. I have yet to discover its depths. This book is one years worth of discoveries. A lot of the time, there are more questions than answers, but our God is that big. He is the creator of the universe after all.

Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy Devotional Journal


Book Description

This devotional journal is an ideal companion for anyone wanting to apply the knowledge they learned about lament from Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy and practice it in their own life.




Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy


Book Description

Lament is how you live between the poles of a hard life and trusting God’s goodness. Lament is how we bring our sorrow to God—but it is a neglected dimension of the Christian life for many Christians today. We need to recover the practice of honest spiritual struggle that gives us permission to vocalize our pain and wrestle with our sorrow. Lament avoids trite answers and quick solutions, progressively moving us toward deeper worship and trust. Exploring how the Bible—through the psalms of lament and the book of Lamentations—gives voice to our pain, this book invites us to grieve, struggle, and tap into the rich reservoir of grace and mercy God offers in the darkest moments of our lives.
