The City Church is a thriving multisite church noted for its cultural relevance, commitment to biblical integrity and faith, and love for Jesus.

This devotional book is a very easy and quick read and as a reader I felt like I was getting to know Judah the author just as much as I was relating his stories to my own life and the Bible.
I enjoy when authors can share stories about them selves but then turn each story into a life lesson that is relate able to a biblical story. Each daily read does start of with a suggested Bible scriptures to read and questions to help you dig deeper and connect more with God.

My Review:
This is the second book by Judah Smith that I have read, the first one was "Jesus is for You." I like Judah Smith's writing style but more or less I love the little stories he shares within his writing. This devotional book is a very easy and quick read and as a reader I felt like I was getting to know Judah the author just as much as I was relating his stories to my own life and the Bible.
I enjoy when authors can share stories about them selves but then turn each story into a life lesson that is relate able to a biblical story. Each daily read does start of with a suggested Bible scriptures to read and questions to help you dig deeper and connect more with God.
This book would be a great book to pass on to new people in their faith or those people who struggle with making a routine of Jesus time. The daily reads truly are short enough that you could have this book stashed in the bathroom as well as they range about 3-4 pages.
