My Review
✰✰✰✰
Ecclesiastes 1:9 (KJV)
The thing that hath been, it is that which
shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no
new thing under the sun.
Tozer’s writings
are as relevant today as they were decades ago when he wrote them. Taken from
books and sermons and other writings of his, these 366 Devotional Readings are
meant to be a complement to personal Bible study time and I have to say they
are thought provoking!
In one of the
readings, Tozer speaks of our devotional life being crowded out by busyness and
modern technologies. Sound familiar? He was referring to radio and television
but I can only imagine how he would feel with the distractions of tablets,
phones, computers, and hand held games that we have in the 21st
century. Rarely do I see families eating at a table in a restaurant without one
or all of them staring at their individual electronic devices while silence
reigns between them. I am guilty of this myself!
I have been re-energized
by this devotional. My copy already has many passages highlighted. Tozer was a
studied man, devoted to prayer, and a highly respected ‘modern day’ theologian
for his time. I highly recommend adding Evenings with Tozer to your daily
repertoire of study materials.
I received a
complimentary copy from Moody Publishers in exchange for a review. I was not
required to write a positive review, only my opinion of the book. No
compensation has been received.
~Happy Reading~
I love the writings of Tozer! He has long been a favorite of mine, and I have many of his books. His writings are deep and very thought provoking. I enjoyed your review today, and would probably really enjoy this devotional! I hope you are doing well dear friend! It has been a very busy summer, and I am attempting to get back into blogging on a somewhat regular basis, lol! Hugs to you today :)
