Customer Reviews

Great as a springboard for Journaling

I bought two copies of this book. I didn't realize it was more for reflection than just a straight-through read. Pastor Bernard is a very insightful preacher. If you're looking for reflective reading at the start, middle or end of the day this is a good pick. The cover is cheery and makes a nice table focal piece.
