What Readers are Saying

Duke Stone is one of my favorite pastors, teachers, and overall people. The book highlights his skill at bringing you into the lesson with simple yet full descriptions. He is a gifted story teller. The very first devotion gave me chills. Highly recommend. We can all use the reminder to look for the extraordinary in the ordinary.

Duke Stone shares his ability to uncover the divine in the everyday. This remarkable book highlight's God hand in the small, often overlooked moments of our life. The devotional is full of authentic reflections of faith. Each day is short enough to include in your busy schedule, yet full of rich practices that will renew your passion and purpose in everyday life. This is a must read and a great gift from college/career to golden year readers.

I enjoyed walking through these devotions each day and was encouraged by the insight Duke Stone provided into the scriptures. His practical insight and prayers are a great way to begin a day.

I have known Duke 10+ years,first as my sons' headmaster at school and then as my pastor. I learned more sitting under him than I had in my whole Christian life before that. Reading this book once again challenged me to " think outside the box" which was Duke's way of teaching. If your "hungry" to "understand" more of the Lord.... This book is a MUST read.
