Jesus Listens-for Lent and Easter

Title: Jesus Listens-for Lent and Easter

My Review:

I enjoy Sarah Young's devotionals. When I saw she had written one for Easter and the Lent season, I knew I had to read it.

This is a good seasonal devotional, but I wish I had gotten the paperback instead of the Kindle edition. I was expecting it to be set up as 40 days or something like that, and it wasn't. So, with the Kindle edition, it was hard to see where each day was supposed to end. Also, the instructions said to use your highlighting function "to record your response whenever you are asked to checkmark, circle, underline, or otherwise indicate your answer(s)." There was never a time asked for my response. So, I don't know if something was missing from the ebook.

Anyway, each day has a prayer, several scripture verses, and the days seem to be broken up by illustrated pages (which I am sure are beautiful in a hard copy, but were just in black and white on the Kindle). The readings are perfect for this time of year.

★★★/5
