It's that time of year again. Everyone is reminiscing and wondering where on earth 2012 went, and with the beginning of the next calendar, New Year’s resolutions (that are likely to be broken within a week) are made with cheerful optimism. As the Christmas buzz fades away you have an opportunity to ponder how you would like to make a difference in 2013.
We've selected a few daily devotionals to help you kick start 2013 into a year of fruitfulness and spiritual growth.
365 Days with Calvin - Joel R Beeke
If you’re looking for something a bit more traditional Day One Publications have a series of 365 Days with famous theologians such as 365 Days with Calvin or 365 Days with Spurgeon Vol. One. Each gives a verse and suggested further reading alongside a challenging and inspiring reflection, though some of the language may be a bit tricky these devotionals are rich in biblical wisdom.
Trusting God, Day by Day - Joyce Meyer
Joyce Meyers’s ministry and books continue to encourage and develop Christians around the world, particularly women, and this 365 day devotional Trusting God Day by Day is no exception. Released in November 2012 this hardback devotional helps you to live ‘intentionally’, rather than ‘detentionally’, as you are encouraged to fulfil God’s purpose for your life.
A Mustard Seed - Angus Buchan
A Mustard Seed is the lastest daily devotional from bestselling author Angus Buchan of ‘Faith like Potatoes’ fame. Start your day with a smile as you read through a passage of scripture, a meditation from the man himself, including his world famous anecdotes, and finishing with a short prayer.
