Wake-Up Calls: 101 Devotionals for Sleepy Christians

By Will Davis Jr.

Book Overview

I don't know about you, but I need all the help I can get when it comes to spiritually jump-starting my day. Some days I get up and it is all I can do to concentrate on a few verses of Scripture. Other days I feel tempted to blow off my twenty minutes of reading because I'm anxious that I have too much to do. On such days I have found it helpful to have a source to direct my thoughts toward God. I need a tool to help me rouse my weary spirit and prepare to take on yet another day of kingdom building. In short, I need a wake-up call. Do you? So writes Will Davis Jr., in Wake-Up Calls.

Wake-Up Calls helps bleary-eyed Christians to better see God's kingdom. It deals practically with such topics as temptation, sin, prayer, relationships, suffering, conflict, death and obedience with honesty and in-your-face clarity.

If you need a blast of kingdom reality that cuts through the morning's spiritual fog, then Wake-Up Calls is for you.

Customer Reviews

An inspiration for any time or occasion.

I've had this book for awhile and I just figured out how to read it most effectively. This is not a sit down and read cover to cover type of book, although you can do that if you wish. It's more to fill in those short gaps where you've got 5 minutes or so. Mornings are what is implied, but I've found reading a section at night works very well. Each section is only a couple pages but has an impact much greater. A Bible verse is included, and usually a short story to illustrate the point. Where you go from there is up to you, but you go with a new perspective. As with all his books, the author writes as though he's speaking directly to you, which makes the content more personable and accessible.
