Extreme Devotion

Summary: THIS BOOK WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD!
Review: Over and over as you read this book, you are challenged.

As I read each day's devotional I see an example of incredible, sacrificial faith in Jesus Christ. And each day I am pushed to ask myself: do I have that kind of faith?

What a challenge! And the stories are incredible and well told. I was struck by the variety of people who have faced the ultimate questions and answered firmly by following Christ's call to take up our crosses. Each day's reading features a story of a Christian, an application thought, and a scripture verse.

The Voice of the Martyrs has done a great job of presenting this material in a challenging way.

I especially like it that the days are numbered, instead of dated, so that you can easily start using this devotional any day of the year. That makes it a practical purchase or gift any time of year, not just around January 1.

Great book! Great challenge! Don't pick it up unless you're willing to face tough questions and have your life and faith changed.

Summary: Very Nice....
Review: The book is organized into 365 daily readings, with each topic referencing someone who displayed "extreme devotion" even to the point of laying down theirs or a loved ones' life.

Nicely organized with side scriptures and commentary on the day's story.

I highly recommend. I just started reading, so I've only covered about 14 or more stories to date, but I look forward to spending time with the book each day!

Summary: Heart wrenching and inspiring
Review: This beautiful book (the cover and interior are designed beautifully) will break your heart and inspire you at the same time. You'll be amazed at the perseverance of Christian brothers and sisters around the world who have been persecuted for Christ. The layout in 1-page readings with scriptures and life applications is terrific. Get this book.
