During 2009 I have been working my way through Stuart Briscoe’s “One Year Devotions” for Men. The book is specifically aimed at men and especially those who have a busy life and find difficulty in fitting in regular Bible reading.

There are 365 daily readings – one for every day of the year in the book. Each day consists of a passage from the Scriptures from which the author will pick a key verse. He will make some points on that verse and passage in general and then build the theme from the day around it. The final paragraph normally includes either a challenge to reflect on or a word of encouragement.

There are many devotional books that one can choose to use but I personally have found it very helpful and if you have not yet decided upon a Bible reading plan for 2010 or you find it difficult to fit in regular Bible reading then this could be the book for you. And of course you can start any day of the year you wish and work your way through it. You don’t have to wait until 1 January!
