Praise for Refresh Your Faith, Uncommon Devotions from Every Book of the Bible
“This is probably the best devotional book I have ever read! I especially enjoyed learning about some minor characters from the Old Testament. Not only has it enriched my spiritual life but I have used it as a resource when I have taught my Sunday School class. Needless to say, I will be buying extra copies for Christmas presents!” ~Susan Cline, reader
“Lori Hatcher’s 66 devotions go deep. She takes an unfamiliar verse from each book of the Bible and aptly applies it to life today. I can’t remember how many of them spoke directly to me. In addition to her personal or real world-examples, Lori leaves us with an Uncommon Thought and a next step for us which she labels as Unusual Faith. This is one I can read again and again.” ~Candyce, Reader
“When my copy first arrived, I opened it at random and read the first devotion I came to. Lori’s words gripped me, as the personal story she shared brought immediate conviction (see the chapter on 2 Timothy). Equally impactful was the first devotional (Genesis), with its focus on two questions central to Christian faith and walk. This book is much more than a “refresher.” It’s a journey through terrain we thought we knew, with stops at places we had overlooked or missed on previous visits, enriching each step and leaving indelible impressions. A book to experience, not just read.” ~ Deborah DeCiantis
