Reviews for The One Year Book of Amish Peace
2 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I have always been fascinated by the Amish. Their Faith. Their customs. Their mannerisms. Something about them just draws me and makes me want to know more. I guess that's why I love Amish fiction. I also love daily devotionals. Putting them both together is absolutely perfect for me and, I believe, shear genius! With The One a Year Book of Amish Peace you have the best of both all in one book. I love the way Tricia Goyer compiles all of this information. Each page (one for each day of the year) contains a world of knowledge. She starts with a scripture, as all devotionals do, she then gives a bit of Amish wisdom or proverb but, the best part is, she turns that tidbit of knowledge into a Bible lesson for the day. It also contains footnotes directing you to the original source when applicable. So you learn about the Amish and enjoy a closer relationship with God at the same time. Speaking as someone that adores our Creator and loves all things Amish, in my opinion it doesn't get much better than that. Tricia has really out done herself with this compilation. If you love the Amish faith and want to draw closer to God, you will positively love this book. Being a fan of the Amish faith isn't a requirement, though. You will still learn the Biblical knowledge you need for a stronger relationship with the One who loves you beyond measure. I can honestly say I have read several devotionals over the years but this one is, by far, my favorite yet. If you haven't read it yet I encourage you to pick up a copy.**I received a complimentary copy of this book from Tyndale House Publishers for my honest review.**
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Synopsis:
Let the simplicity of the Amish draw you closer to God.
In this instantly connected world, it’s surprisingly easy to lose our connection to God. What’s admirable about the Amish lifestyle is that it intentionally slows the pace of life so there’s an opportunity to see the everyday grandeur of our great God.
Not everyone can–or should–adopt an Amish lifestyle. But the Amish can inspire all of us to slow down and simplify our lives. We need to learn to let go of our glittering gadgets in order to grab hold of something of infinitely greater value–the Divine.
The One Year Book of Amish Peace will inspire you to set a sustainable pace so that you, too, can take the time to enjoy God’s gifts each and every day.”
My Review:
I have read quite a few books by Tricia Goyer and I have enjoyed all the ones I have read, so I was immediately interested in this devotional. This book is laid out for a year, so I haven’t read the entire book, but I have read a few of the different dates and I have liked what I have read.
