How Should A Christian Live? by Brenda Noel
How Should a Christian Live is the third in a series of devotionals in the Word of Promise: Next Generation series. In this youth devotional, the reader will come to understand how a Christian should live based upon characteristics found in scripture. There are twelve sessions which include sections of reading, word games and an audio portion of scripture .
I found this devotional to be a great tool in a young believers understanding of the characteristics each Christian should try to develop. Having been involved in youth ministry, this devotional tries to dig deep in defining big ideas and terms as well as how to understand scripture and how to apply it in our daily lives. The devotional makes it an interactive experience between listening to the MP3 scripture along with the word games . The stories that are told in each session are easy to relate to and easy to follow.
I wish the devotional had you interact with the Bible more and used a more literal translation rather than the children’s version used.
Overall, I thought this was a great devotional for youth and appropriate for older elementary and middle school students.
