Now the 2013 Christian Book of the Year (that's the little gold seal on the cover), Sarah Young's Jesus Today helps you find a closer walk with God by encouraging your heart and mind to find hope by focusing more clearly on Jesus – today and everyday.

Sarah Young, author of the hugely popular Jesus Calling gives you another uniquely personal daily devotional. Born from her own endurance and faith through six months of getting treatment for Lyme’s disease related infections - without seeing significant improvement, Jesus Today continues her direct approach of presenting biblical inspiration as first person messages for you from Jesus.

For several years after her illness Sarah continued to suffer from chronic dizziness. Her struggles have shaped this devotional of hope through God’s presence, Jesus Today. Featuring the same ‘first-person messages from Jesus’ as she used so effectively in Jesus Calling, Sarah told Publisher’s Weekly, “I am convinced that if I had been healthier I would not have been able to write this book.”

“It chronicles my journey from discouragement to hope.” She said. “There seems to be a sense of hopelessness creeping into many people’s mindsets as they look at problems in their lives and in world events. But the hope we can find in the Bible is a sturdy reality - no matter what is happening in our lives or in the world.”

Sarah Young lives in Perth, Western Australia where she and her husband, are missionaries with the Presbyterian Church in America. The couple have two children and two grandchildren in the U.S.

Through Jesus Today, Sarah encourages you toward a closer walk with God; quietly connecting you to the one who meets you right where you are - no matter where that is, and leads you to somewhere better.
