Book review: "Jesus Calling: 365 Devotions for Kids"

“Jesus Calling: 365 Devotions for Kids” by Sarah Young

“Jesus Calling: 365 Devotions for Kids” offers a short devotional for children to read on their own each day. Each page contains a Bible verse, a devotional written as if God is speaking to the child, and suggested additional Bible reading.

While it has some good thoughts in it I am uncomfortable with it being written as if Jesus is speaking. I would prefer to hear “God” and “Jesus” emphasized more. I am afraid a child might lose that focus. I also am disappointed that there are no prayers or suggestions to pray included in the devotional.

“BookSneeze” provided me with a copy of this book to review.
