Through
the Word Today ~ Book
~ by Rev, Jan Overton. Published by Cumberland Presbyterian Resources,
2009. Trade Paperback, 383 pages.
If you've ever made - and broken - a
promise to begin reading the Bible on a regular basis, this book is for
you!
By reading each of the scripture readings that accompany the daily
devotions, you will complete the New Testament over the next 365 days.
And you'll have a wonderful start to your day.
Prepare for a
life-changing journey as you go Through the Word Today.
Each day's reading is set up with the following elements:
- Today's Reading. By reading the
entire text of Through the Word Today
you will read the selected Bible verse in context with the surrounding
verses. And you will have the additional benefit of achieving a feat
most people have never done—you will read through the entire New
Testament in a year’s time!
- Selected verse(s). One or more
verses provide the focus of the day's devotion. They may not be the
most important verses in the day's reading, they were just the focus of
the writing.
- Devotion. Thought-provoking
writings prompted by the selected verses. Many times you'll find a
tie-in to modern-day situations. Other times you'll find a teaching
about one particular element in the scripture.
- Prayer. Daily requests for God's
help in walking our Christian journey.
Rev. Jan Overton serves the Crestline Cumberland Presbyterian Church in
Birmingham, Alabama where she lives with her husband Gene, two dogs,
and a cat. She has always had a passion for writing. Several years ago
she started sending daily e-mails as a way of encouraging her friends.
Then, in 2005, she turned her e-mails into daily devotions. Her new
goal was to encourage readers in their daily walk with Christ by
applying Bible passages to every day life. At the same time she changed
the format and content, she also expanded the list of recipients to
include church members, business associates, friends, and friends of
friends. Several of those receiving the daily devotions encouraged Jan
to put her collection in print and open her daily words of
encouragement to people who do not use the Internet.
