Jesus Calling

I have been reading Jesus Calling devotion by Sarah Young since 2014 and I can tell you that it has been a blessing for to. She’s not saying what she thinks every one is God inspired there are scriptures to read from each message.

I have been a growing Christian for 40+ years and have been using this devotion everyday for about 5 years. Long ago, I loved the God Calling devotions by two English ladies written in the 50’s I believe... but I longed to have something similar to my own journalings with God in today’s language tightly tied to scipture readings as I had done haphazardly so long ago...then I discovered Sarah Youngs writings of her encounters with the Living One!! I disagree with those reviews that have not understood it. God does speak to those who listen to His Word! Jesus Calling has made me trust Him and seek Him and be in the Word so very much more! I now give it away to anyone who is gravely ill or trying to withstand an uphill battle in their lives to encourage and draw them closer to Jesus...Enjoy!!

Jesus is the only Mediator between God and men. And that mediator speaks to us through His written Word. Sarah Young's failure to grasp this simple Christian concept has lead her to create yet another faddish 'christiany' feel-good book. It's trash for the soul, and only feeds the problem of unfulfilled spiritual longing. It would have done the world a lot more good if Ms. Young had written a book on finding the God who has already spoken, rather than attempting to serve as an God's interpreter. Skip this one and have read through the Gospels if you want to hear Jesus speak to you. His calling is the call to repent and trust in the finished work of Jesus on the Cross; something this book manages to miss completely. Utter rubbish.
