Voices of the Faithful Book 2 by Beth Moore, Kim P. Davis, International Mission Board Book Review



Voices of the Faithful Book 2 by Beth Moore, Kim P. Davis, International Mission Board



“Voices of the Faithful Book 2: Inspiring Stories of Courage from Christians Serving Around the World” is a magnificent devotion book to read for the entire year. The International Mission Board composed together a compilation of inspirational stories from missionaries around the world. Beth Moore created the “Voice of the Faithful” series. She also wrote the introduction to the book. Kim P. Davis was the complier of the book and she also wrote the monthly introductions for the devotion book. In this devotion book, you will read stories that will cause you to want to pray and help one another in your everyday life. Some of the monthly topics include prayer the priority, lost and found, the power of the story, lessons from the young, from adversity to triumph, hope for the world. The devotion for each day has a bible verse and a missionary story to go along with it. The devotion book also contains a different prayer to pray for the missionary field each day. The devotion book encloses a list of scriptural references and devotion titles by the month in the back of the book to assist you with your bible study.


I would recommend this book to everyone. Teenagers and adults will be able to learn about the many different missionary fields and what makes their faith stand strong for Christ. It will inspire readers to reach and grow in their personal faith. I think the devotion book is a wonderful tool to use for your alone time with God and you can even pray the prayer for missionaries each day. Note: I only read the devotion book for the month of January. But I plan to continue reading the devotion book for the remainder of the year.

The Christmas Spirit by Joel Osteen Book Review

The Christmas Spirit is a collection of Christmas time stories. Joel Osteen shared stories and memories about his family and how they celebrated Christmases when he was a young boy. His mother and father always made the major decision to tell the Osteen kids about Jesus being born for the whole wide world. Joel Osteen and his brothers and sisters did get some Christmas presents growing up. But the Osteen children were taught values that continued and made them who they are today. Joel’s father, John Osteen gave Joel, his brother, and his sisters a special Christmas present to share with one another and to teach them a virtue. Joel Osteen also gave a similar gift to his son and daughter, because it meant so much to Joel when he received it from his father. Joel Osteen informed his readers about Victoria’s Christmas traditions. Victoria would always travel to see her family at Christmas time. Joel Osteen will make you think about Christmas as a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus. He also believes in spending quality time with your family and never taking them for granted. Joel Osteen conveys the message of Christmas throughout The Christmas Spirit.

I liked this book because it told stories and memories about Christmas from Joel and Victoria Osteen. I found out that we both celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. I think the whole world needs to hear the message of Christ. This book is a great one to read during the Christmas Holiday. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys the Christmas season! In addition, I would recommend it as a gift to give someone else for Christmas. Joel Osteen shares his memories of Christmas in a way that will make you want to spend quality time with your family. His book will inspire you to make every day count and every Christmas needs to be enjoyed because it might be someone’s last.
