Hey fellow dads, What’s the difference between doctrinal and devotional books? Why are good devotional books so helpful in our spiritual walk? Join us for today’s episode, and let’s find out. —Nathan Scriptures 📖  Matthew 12 📖  Isaiah 42 📖  Proverbs 11:14 📖  Proverbs 15:22 📖  Proverbs 24:6 📖  Proverbs 2:20 Books 📚 Basic Theology: A Popular Systematic Guide to Understanding Biblical Truth, by Charles Ryrie 📚 Things Hard to be Understood: A Handbook of Biblical Difficulties, by David Cloud 📚 What Every Christian Ought to Know: Essential Truths for Growing Your Faith, by Adrian Rogers 📚 Reflections on the Gospels: Devotional Thoughts from the Pen of Vance Havner, compiled by Michael Catt 📚 Morning and Evening, by Charles Haddon Spurgeon 📚 The Valley of Vision: A Collection of Puritan Prayers & Devotions, by Arthur Bennett Links ⛓️ https://banneroftruth.org/us/devotional-series/the-valley-of-vision-devotional/ Why Use Devotional Books Perhaps the most obvious—they can help us understand the Bible. A devotional book can show us what God taught other Christians as they studied the Bible and prayed. A devotional book can allow us to acquaint ourselves with men and women who thought more deeply than most of us probably do now. Reading comments and insights into scripture written in an earlier generation or different culture can help us see the Bible’s truths outside our own culture and our presuppositions, and it can help us to see that the Bible transcends cultures, speaking to people of all ages and all backgrounds. They can help us to remember that we’re not alone in our Christian walk.
