Margaret Roberts

 1. Her-Story: 366 Devotions from 21 Centuries of the Christian Church by Diana Lynn Severance

Women were an integral part of Jesus’ life and ministry as described in all four Gospels, and they are integral to the life of the church wherever Christianity has spread. In whatever position they found themselves, whether queens or slaves, they lived for their Saviour and sought to bring others to Him. Her-Story brings together well-known names, such as Fanny Crosby and Joni Eareckson Tada to lesser known Christians from across the centuries, in 366 devotions. The recurring theme – their love for Jesus.


2. Behold My Servant: The Servant Songs of Isaiah by Brian A. Russell

The Servant Songs of Isaiah are a beautiful topic for a devotional. Set in the context of Israel’s failure, few places in the Old Testament speak so clearly about the merciful Messiah. To quote Henri Blocher, ‘In them our Savour found the blueprint of His mission. From them Jesus learned that He would have to suffer for us; that He would die for us, as though He were a criminal, under the weight of our sins. How holy the ground we tread when studying the songs!’

4.  40 Days with Jesus, 40 Days with David, 40 Days with Paul by Dominic Smart

We meet Paul, an arch-enemy of the church that God turned into its foremost evangelist and preacher. And we find out what it was like to be with Jesus during his three years of ministry on earth, what really happened at the crucifixion and how our lives can truly be changed because Jesus rose from the dead.

6. What Would Judas Do? by John Perritt

Through thirty-one days of Bible verses, prayers, and hymns, The Bedside Book helps you to bring yourself and your concerns into the presence and loving care of God our Father.
