Give Us This Day Devotionals, Volume 5: Acts
Ebook
Give Us This Day is a unique daily devotional commentary for the entire New Testament based on the ancient method called lectio divina. Lectio divina, or "divine reading," is the method used by the early church and countless Christians through the centuries to read the Scriptures to form and transform the soul more than merely to inform the mind.
Give Us This Day deals in depth with entire passages and their contexts. Rather than selecting only certain portions of the New Testament to write about, Fr. Charles has written a devotional for each and every passage of the New Testament.
Fr. Charles writes for the whole person: he's not afraid to use his sense of humor, and he carefully relates the Bible not only to the individual's life but also to the life of the Church. At the end of each day's devotional, an appropriate Prayer is offered, as well as Points for Further Reflection on the day's lesson. Each devotional concludes with a suggested Resolution to put into effect what the Spirit has stirred up in the heart of the reader during the course of his reading, meditation, and prayer.
“For more than a decade and a half now, I have been reading and benefitting from the Lectio Divina devotions of Charles Erlandson. This fifth volume is therefore a welcome addition to what has become a legacy library of substantial, practical, biblical discipleship. Highly recommended!”
—George Grant, pastor, Parish Presbyterian Church
