Praise
“This little devotional is the perfect way to focus and reset during this sacred season of turning away from sin and death and toward new life in the Lord. By giving just a few minutes to the daily reflections and accompanying hymns, Lent can once again become a time of peaceful prayer, relentless hope, and renewed care of neighbor. What Wondrous Love is the perfect companion as we journey during lengthening days to the glory of celebrating Christ’s Death and Resurrection.”
“I have been so moved—and I feel my relationship with our Lord and understanding of him growing—by praying with this Lenten devotional. I love all of it, but truly my favorite parts are the hymns that go with the daily reflections and prayers. I find myself listening to my favorites each day, and my prayer is growing as I spend more and more time each day with the Lord and praising him!”
“As a hospice chaplain, I am always looking for great prayer resources to offer those I serve. These books provide interesting reflections, relatable prayers, and familiar seasonal hymns that touch the hearts of my patients and their families. You can’t help but feel comforted and draw closer to God when praying with these devotionals.”
