Jesus Daily Devotional by Aaron Taboe, MD, with a giveaway

Based on the major themes found on the most active Facebook page in history, JESUS DAILY is a 365-day interactive devotional that goes beyond even the fan page to create a deeper experience and cultural movement that celebrates your redemption in Christ. JESUS DAILY presents a devotional thought but also challenges you to respond to each daily reflection using a variety of social media tools. 

JESUS DAILY is a worldwide revolution in how you can connect, share, and worship the Father personally and with other believers.


My review:
I was not familiar with the Jesus Daily Facebook page until I was offered this devotional book to review. This devotional was inspired by the fans and themes on that Facebook page.

  The book itself is a small and attractive hardcover the size of a mass market paperback. It is a 365 day devotional with each devotional having a date at the top of the page. Each day has a Bible verse, followed by a devotional, and ending with a "connect" section. The connect part has the reader do something. Sometimes it is listing something that has to do with the lesson, going on Facebook and starting a discussion about a certain topic, etc. The connect part is what makes the devotional interactive.

 I didn't read all 365 devotionals, but I did read some of them and looked through the book, and for as short of devotionals as they are, they say a lot in those few words and cover a wide variety of topics. The interactive part can be challenging, but even that part shouldn't take that much extra time out of the reader's day. From what I have seen of it, it would make a great devotional, especially for those who are well connected to social media like Facebook and Twitter.
