Time Well Spent – a practical guide to developing your daily devotions, by Colin Webster, 10Publishing, £2.99 When it comes to growing our devotional life, we may not know where to begin. Perhaps we feel so busy that we can’t possibly add yet another thing to our ‘to-do list’. Or maybe Bible study time feels more like a strain on the brain rather than fuel for the soul, and we wonder if it’s worth keeping going. This book tackles these concerns head-on. It explains what a daily devotional time should involve, provides tips as to how to set aside the common distractions of life, and explains why time with God really is time well spent. Not Knowing but Still Going. By Jocelyn-Anne Harvey, Instant Apostle, £9.99 Uncertainty, change and the unexpected – we all struggle with unknowns. So, can we learn from Noah’s Ark and the women who entered it? It is an unusual premise for a book, but the author explores the challenges Noah’s family faced, and blends these with her own personal experiences of God’s faithfulness in uncertain times. She considers such questions as: How can we progress when we can’t feel any movement? How can we respond to the ‘suddenlies’ in life? What can we do with ‘the want in the wait’? Do women have key roles to play? So if you are a woman feeling swamped by a flood of unknowns, this book may provide some encouragement to keep going, and to find refuge in the Lord, until your way becomes clear. 24
