Book Review: Turning Your Day Toward God, Right from the Heart

I was somewhat disappointed with Bryant Wright’s Turning Your Day Toward God, Right from the Heart: A 365 Day Devotional. Don’t get me wrong, this book was very well written and people who consider themselves to be devout conservative Catholics/Christians will enjoy reading this book for a few minutes every day. However, some of the topics covered in this book clashed with my more open and liberal mindset. Reading this book over the course of two days, I definitely got a different feel for it than somebody who only read one page over the course of a year. For me, reading this book on a daily basis would have aggravated me for I some of the topics did bother me; I won’t announce which ones did because I don’t want to sway your opinion of this book. If you are looking for a great way to connect with our Lord for a few minutes a day on a daily basis, then buy a copy of this beautifully printed book. If you do, however, consider yourself to be somewhat more of a liberal Catholic/Christian, this may not be the best book for you. I didn’t care for this based on my own personal taste, but it was a very well written devotional.
