Book review: A Path to Redeeming Love: A Forty-Day Devotional


About the book:

This forty-day devotional based on the classic bestselling novel Redeeming Love leads you on a personal, six-week journey into God's all-consuming embrace.

We know that God loves us unconditionally. So why is it so hard to break free from the past and live in that truth? Inspired by the biblical book of Hosea, Redeeming Love introduces a love so profound that it forever changes Angel, a woman who had viewed herself as broken beyond redemption. With A Path to Redeeming Love: A 40-Day Devotional, you can immerse yourself daily in the truth of God's unshakable love for you.

Personal essays from Francine explore key themes from the novel--Rejected, Resigned, Rescued, Redeemed, Reconciled, Restored--inspired by Scripture.

My review

 💗💗💗💗

Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers was the first Christian fiction book I've read and I think I have read it at least three times. The brokenness of Angel was raw and heartbreaking and road to redemption so well written. So I was very excited to see a devotional based on this novel.  

This devotional reminded me again how much I loved this novel.  Each of the themes build on each other and also went deeper each day - almost the same way God will work - gentle pushes which gets deeper and deeper as you grow closer to Him and start the healing process.

The devotional was really good. Each day started with a small excerpt from the story, with very relevant scripture and thoughts about that excerpt. And at the end some questions to think about.  The author also got real from her own life which I appreciated, because we all have experienced some of these themes in our own lives: Rejected, Resigned, Rescued, Redeemed, Reconciled, Restored.

If you have read Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers and loved it, you would definitely love this devotional.
