Summary: bravo
Comment: In one of his entries, Mr. Warden writes: "Once you begin reading through the Old Testament, one theme becomes abundantly clear: God loves deserts. Or, at the very least, He loves to use them...." Most of us can relate to being in that dry and barren emotional place at some point in our lives, and Alone With God, a compact devotional, is like a nice drink of water for those who are thirsty for refreshment. The title of the book says it is inspiration for the unmarried, but I believe that description is somewhat misleading, for the devotions are for all who have felt the ache of isolation during their spiritual journey (and who among us, married or not, have not felt this way?). The writing speaks to that breaking loneliness we all have in our hearts, how to honestly wrestle with it, and like Jacob and the angel, come away blessed. The devotions also serve as warnings not to buy into the culturally scripted metaphors which all too often pervade our notions of what it means to be single or married (if you are single there is something wrong, if you are married, everything is ok). Mr. Warden's book reminds us that God is passionately and relentlessly consumed with making us more like Him, with making us fall so deeply in love with Him that we lead full, adventurous lives because we are part of a bigger story. And in that journey, we are most assuredly not alone.

Summary: For Those Who Crave Intimacy with God
Comment: With a deep simplicity reminiscent of Oswald Chambers in "My Utmost for His Highest," Michael Warden writes of Christ's love and grace, encouraging us to apply God's Word in ways that challenge and free us. Though targeted toward the unmarried, "Alone with God" can exhort the soul of anyone-single, divorced, widowed, or married-to live the gospel truth with passion and abandon. I found myself pierced to my soul with Warden's insights; my copy of this devotional now bears copious underlined sentences and myriad dog-eared pages for future reference. I highly recommend this devotional to anyone who craves a more intimate walk with God!

Summary: The Most Uniquely Challenging Devotional - Not like the rest
Comment: I have tons of devotionals - we all do and we don't get to all of them. This is one I do make time for and that's for many reasons. One is the way the author creates an atmosphere of being open to learning and knowing God more deeply where the reader is. Another is that he hits on subjects that are so specific to issues that we all face, but no one else seems to bring up. For instance, one day he talks about offending his sister in Christ. It wasn't on purpose. His intentions were good, but were they? There is still evil at war within the flesh and in an attempt to do good, some bad might have been done and so forgiveness and reconciliation is sought after recognizing his weakness and confessing it. But wait, I had just done that and it was to a sister in Christ whom I cared for. I'd never thought about it like that. I always have "good" intentions or I thought I did. This and many other devotional thoughts have begun to draw me closer to the Word and to the Lord for God's ultimate desire and that's to be conformed to His image. Michael Warden's Alone With God is an excellent book to help guide us to that point where we truly are alone with God for Him to do His work. And if you aren't "unmarried," get it anyway!
