Great thought provoking devotional.

[Mar · Rating 4 out of 5]

re-read 2025. I enjoyed some days more than others. Is a "cognitive" book; one needs to focus when reading the thoughts. Not sure I agree with all the ideas such as heaven is a place up there in the clouds, but lots changes from Kuyper's time until today, and perhaps I misunderstand as Kuyper is much wiser than I am. Schaap did a good job of updating the material.
