Praying with Jane : 31 Days Through the Prayers of Jane Austen

This devotional book by Rachel Dodge is an inspiring and encouraging devotional. Based on prayers written by Jane Austen, each day's devotion focuses on a phrase from those prayers. The author's devotions are very well-written and based on scripture to illuminate the specific thought from Jane's prayers. Besides the spiritual encouragement I received from reading these devotions, I also loved the insight into Jane's faith and family life, as well as the quotes that appear from her books. I appreciated the fact that Rachel Dodge encourages the reader to trust Christ as their Savior, and includes a section in the book as to how to place your faith in Christ. The author's own faith shines through the thoughts she shares with us. Fans of Jane Austen will enjoy reading Rachel Dodge's research into Jane's life. All readers will be challenged to commit each day to God and His leading in our lives. I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
