Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Not yet ready for Kindle
This is a revised review. Mine was the very first review posted in the Kindle section for this book. The subsequent day, I found several reviews for PRINTED EDITIONS of this book posted.

Nobody has refuted what I've said about the Kindle version!

---------------------------

I have the printed versions of both volumes
For the Love of God: A Daily Companion for Discovering the Riches of God's Word, Volume 1 and
For the Love of God: A Daily Companion for Discovering the Treasures of God's Word
of this wonderful series of meditations on scripture, whose schedule follows Robert Murray M'Cheyne's through the Bible in a year, and I give THEM 5 stars.

Unfortunately, the Kindle version is a technical disaster.

First, the "schedule" of readings in the front of the book consists of scanned images-- not searchable text. (Some of the images are even crooked!)

Second, each daily meditation is presented WITHOUT its date.

This means that you can't easily find the meditation for a random date. Instead, you need to look at the scanned images near the front of the book and write down the four passages (usually about a chapter each) and do a search (of your entire Kindle collection!) for "Genesis 18" (or whatever).

If the publisher would put the dates with each meditation, that would be a quantum leap forward (to 4 stars!). Give us a text-based schedule of meditations, and I'll give it 5!



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing Devotional
This has been one of the most inspirational devotional I have read. It is definitely a great tool to use when reading the word of God.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Best Devotion Book Ever
D.A. Carson has not reinvented the wheel, but has reminded us of a reading plan from the 1800's that guides us through reading the Bible in one year (plus NT and Psalms a second time). His commentary is rich in gaining insight to the whole Bible. I am in third year of using this reading plan and only wish I had started 40 years ago.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - An excellent one-year devotional
In a day when "devotional" has come to mean lovely thoughts bearing little relationship to the biblical passage, this book challenges, encourages, and draws the reader into the text. Based on Robert Murray McCheyne's one-year reading plan, Carson brings to life one of the four passages read each day. I can't wait to get vol. 2,



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Extremely Gratifying
Carson has wisdom that I was continually surprised with each new devotion. He has an amazing ability to place a chapter in its biblical context, helping the reader understand why it's important. His writing is very well crafted as he puts profound concepts in simple terms. I highly recommend this book for the spiritual edification of all believers and unbelievers alike.
