Summary: Faith Encounter - Devotional Study of the Gospels
Review: Even though it is written as a youth devotional study of the life of Christ; Faith Encounter is a tremendous devotion for anyone who is new to Christianity or who is looking for practical application of the teachings of the Gospels. Its 84 devotions (12 weeks of daily readings) walk through the life of Christ from prophecy to resurrection. Each devotion includes a scripture reading from the 4 Gospels, an explanation of the reading including modern examples, and one or more application areas where the scripture applies to today's life.

Each week of 7 devotions pursues a new theme through Christ's life: Ultimate Life!, Ultimate Relationship!, Ultimate Truth!, Ultimate Wisdom, Ultimate Commitment!, Ultimate Freedom!, Ultimate Shepherd!, Ultimate Love!, Ultimate Readiness!, Ultimate Mission!, Ultimate Payment!, and Ultimate Triumph.

Faith Encounter is written with a style that is easy to read. The authors use language that is familiar to today's youth and keep each lesson to the point. I would expect the average youth would be able to complete the scripture reading and devotional text in a 15-20 minutes. The applications found in each devotion are clearly stated and are easy to grasp and apply on a daily basis.

Although it was written as a devotional, the clear organization and pace make it ideal as a primary resource for group Bible study as well. It would be easy to complete 2 or more days in a 30-60 minute study period.
