Review # 1 was written on 2015-02-18 00:00:00 Gerson Enamorado Truly superb! Spurgeon's language is approachable yet lofty. The daily format is ideal to accomplish a major impact a little at a time on multiple fronts in the reader's life. Spurgeon comes across as insistent on Christ's best for the reader's life but in a jovial, fatherly way that will have the reader looking forward to the next visit.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-12-31 00:00:00 Gregg Ovist I've run out of annual superlatives. I'm a guy who doesn't typically reread. I'm a guy who doesn't typically need, he thought, commentaries to chew his spiritual food for him. I'm a guy who tended to think more is more, anyway, when commenting on Scripture. What could a paragraph or two on a sliver of Scripture, injected steadily every day do? Four or five years later, I'm still finding out. Spurgeon would never settle for any comparison that the splendor of his language is near to that of Scripture, but let's just say his love of Scripture and Scripture's God glows through his own word choices. And as much as he clearly loves the Word itself and weaves it into his entries, Spurgeon's analogies show a man who also sees God's glory, subtle and grand, unbound by any book's pages. He would be the last to center on man's affection or approval. Yet by this very freedom does his shepherding heart comes through. His confrontations are not dulled by the years that have intervened since this book was written. His exhortations still ring clearly. His love for the reader in the current day is as clear as that love for the people who sat under his teaching as he preached.
