Fun Inspiration!

This book is such a delight, and it is a perfect addition to your devotion time! Authors Christopher D. Hudson and Stan Campbell combine their talents to offer readers ninety thought-provoking devotions, and illustrator Dennis Fletcher adds hilarious cartoons to emphasize their thoughts. I found myself laughing out loud as I marveled at the 'spot-on' illustrations that add the crowning touch to the scriptures being discussed by the authors. Proverbs 17:22 tells us that "A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones". 3-Minute Devotions to Laugh and Reflect is truly a book that will 'lighten your load and brighten your day', and it's a terrific resource! I received a copy from Bethany House Publishers. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts.

Ready for a devotion this is short, and can be read in just a couple of minutes? How about enjoying a cartoon with it that relates to the subject, done in a way that will make you chuckle, but without being irrespective of God? If that sounds good, this is the book for you--concise devotions that barely take any time. But think again if you believe short and funny equals light and pointless. These little devotions, with a comic twist, contain real spiritual meat. Despite their brevity, words are not minced about unacceptable behaviors, beliefs, or sin. Keeping it short, the author gets right to the heart of the matter, and doesn't beat around the bush. You will find ninety devotions that range from enticements to excuses to fasting (stomach trouble), plus eighty-seven more that will surely grab your interest. Just as we were advised years ago by the wise Mary Poppins, "a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down," so, too, can humor help God's truths easily go down into our hearts. I recommend this 5-star book to everyone who wants to go deeper into God's word in an uncomplicated way. Bethany House has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, “3-Minute Devotions to Laugh and Reflect: Lighten Your Load and Brighten Your Day,” for the purpose of review.

So Fun!

5 out of 5 stars
Sue - 3 years ago
3-Minute Devotions to Laugh and Reflect by Christopher D Hudson and Stan Campbell is filled with beautiful comics as well as short devotionals. I appreciate that each devotional first features a scripture verse. The comic illustrations alone are worth the book. We all need a little humor in our world today. Sometimes it’s fun just to sit back and laugh. This book not only has that element but also a short one page devotional to go along with it and make you think (and smile). Laughter and a little bit of spiritual challenge. I was given a free copy of the book from the publisher for my honest review which I was happy to do. I appreciate the humor and fun in this delightful book.

LIGHT-HEARTED, QUICK DEVOTIONS

3 out of 5 stars

“This is a fun, low-key approach to daily devotions that promises to stay with you and encourage your faith,” states the back jacket in Christopher D. Hudson and Stan Campbell’s book, 3-Minute Devotions to Laugh and Reflect: Lighten Your Load and Brighten Your Day. ~ What ~ This one-hundred-and-seventy-two-page paperback targets those who want ninety short, quick-to-read daily devotions. Using mainly the New International Version of The Holy Bible, The Message is also referenced. The ending has notes, the writers’ biographies, and an advertisement. Containing cartoon drawings on the left side of the pages, the right sides have devotions with titles, written out Bible verses, and several paragraphs about topics that are focused on the Word of God. They are meant to cheer up, encourage, and uplift the reader. Some of the chapters are titled Play Nice, Tradition vs. Change, Enticements, No Spiritual Bipasses, Future Shock Absorbers, Weight Problems, Membership Dues, Bond Like a Girl, Better Hopes and Gardens, Genuine Service, Make Time, Act Your Age, The Company You Keep, Ever Ready, Just Let It Go, and Redacting Scripture. ~ Why ~ This is a sophomoric three-month devotional that is light and breezy while showing a more comical side of Christianity with its added cartoons. It contains a gambit of everyday subjects that readers can relate to and appreciate. I like that it mentions we should not pick fights over some Biblical stances such as predestination versus free will and politics. One interesting devotion is Stomach Trouble, referencing Philippians 3:18-19 and a cartoon that says “I just hope his sermon on the dangers of self-centeredness doesn’t make us late for lunch.” The topic is about being in church with a grumbling stomach and daydreaming about what to eat when it is over. It is reiterated that this may not be a stomach but heart problem, where distractions get in the way of focusing on God & what He wants from us. ~ Why Not ~ Those who do not have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ may not understand how His Word is important and should be read daily. Others may not like the Bible versions used or that the limited devotions contain quite a few church topics and are not as deep as expected, but the idea of the book is light-hearted and engaging. Some may consider the devotions diluted and without much substance. ~ Wish ~ While I understand the desire to make devotions pleasant, quick, and uplifting, I wish the book had more Biblical references, suggested Bible reading for each chapter, and perhaps a prayer written out to consider. I prefer all pronouns of God were capitalized for reverence. ~ Want ~ If you are looking for a beginner’s devotional that does not contain a lot of Bible reading but encourages focusing on the Lord, this may work for a new Christian, but it should not be read instead of the Word due to its rudimentary content. Thanks to Bethany House for this complimentary book that I am freely reviewing.
