Summary: Finest biblical daily devotional on market...
Comment: Carson understands that spiritual growth requires more than selecting various texts from around the Bible and applying them to daily personal issues of Christian living, important though that may be. He understands that the Christian believer benefits enormously by seeing how the entire Bible fits together in the flow of salvation-history. Recognizing that linear historical analysis validates the biblical materials is not just an academic exercise, but strengthens faith in the God of the Bible. But, Carson then returns to the issue of application, both at personal and societal levels.
Carson helps Christians to properly interpret OT texts in light of New Covenant fulfillment. He also performs admirably in his notes on passages in the NT pertaining to soteriology. That in itself makes the book worth much more than its purchase price.
I highly recommend these books for any person who wants to grow in her/his understanding and application of the Bible. In addition, these books are of inestimable value for teachers and preachers in that the readings consistently show how to make even rather obscure passages accessible for students and parishoners.

Summary: Helping to Know God on a Daily Basis
Comment: This is volume two of Dr. Carson's attempt to help Christians grow in their relationship with God. In the process the reader's biblical literacy will be raised dramatically. Reading this devotion daily with the four assigned readings, (usually a chapter each in length), you will read the New Testament and Psalms twice and the rest of the Bible once. This was true with volume one as well. Dr. Carson's comments on one of the readings each day will reveal things in Scripture you may have never seen before. He will also give applications to the reader's life from the devotion. This is true as well in volume one. I suggest to the publisher to make volumes one and two a boxed set. It will save the reader another order for a devotion he or she will want after purchasing the first volume. Out of all the devotions I have read, volume two along with its predecessor leads one back to reading the Bible. I highly recommed this volume as well as the first. If your devotional life with God has grown stale, or you want your relationship with God to grow stronger, you could not do better than buying both volumes of Dr. Carson's devotionals
