Truth For Life - Volume 2

Tim Challies

If you are looking for wise and perceptive guidance to help you see and experience the deep impact of God’s words in Scripture, you will love this devotional. Each day’s reflection is a gem, focusing the light of the chosen Scripture text onto our thinking, our affections and our behaviour. I cannot imagine it being read without benefit! (Commenting on Volume 1)

These devotions will help you praise when you are celebrating, will comfort you when you are struggling, will encourage you when you are doubting, and will be a balm when you are hurting. Each day, Alistair points to the glory and goodness of God as He reveals Himself to us in His word. Whoever you are, there is rich treasure for you in this book. (Commenting on Volume 1)

“A great devotional!”

Very well thought out. I appreciate the citied scriptures throughout and the scripture at the bottom for further study. One thing that would be helpful is a bookmark that tells you what the 3 symbols mean, I forget then have to go back To the beginning of the book to remember what they mean.

“Truth for Life Volume Two”

I was given this book in 2022, asked for Volume One in 2023, and bought Vol 2 for a friend in 2024. I am re-reading Volume Two again now in 2025. That is how beneficial I feel these devotions are. Very easy to read too. Thank you

“Quality book and quality service”

I love Alistair's books. Quality man of God, quality, solid biblical teaching. Stayed the course!
This devotional no exception. Had his Vol 2 last year so wanted to get Vol 1 this year. Not disappointed.
And my confidence in Alastair has not wained despite current controversy, as I know the man's heart and stand on moral issues - much of current public criticism is unbalanced and out of context. Read his book Christian Manifesto to capture something of this man's heart.

“This really is "truth for life"!”

I chose this as a Christmas present and am enjoying it very much. It gives you a truth to get your teeth into and mull over during the day. I love the cross-references which link passages in a way that I might not have thought of and the extra passage to read also throws more light on the topic under discussion. I'm not convinced it would work for a new Christian or someone who doesn't know the Bible very well and so may not understand the context of the verse or verses being explained and applied or the cross-references. But if you're reasonably familiar with the Bible and want to deepen your understanding, this book is really good.

“Impossible to read without a magnifying glass”

Well, I’d love to leave a great review, but for some unknown reason the publishers decided to use the teeniest font size they could find. It’s impossible to read without a magnifying glass! Why on earth would you do that - is it trendy to use a tiny font size or something?! So dreadfully disappointed in wasting my money on something I can’t even read (even with glasses!) :(

“Excellent service and wonderful quality books”

Parcel packed very well, delivered on time, all books are of excellent quality.
Bought for a gift, loved by the recipient.

“A book of wisdom”

This isn't a light-hearted- make-you-feel-good devotional. This is truth that focuses on God, leads you to God, and keeps you in God's Word. Outstanding!

“Wonderful devotional”

I love this book, and so often it is just what I need to hear. I have copies of both devotionals and have given some to friends. I love Alistair’s teaching, and join the livestream from his church in Cleveland Ohio each Sunday. His knowledge of God’s Word is great, and his teaching so uplifting in these dark days in which we find ourselves.Both books are beautifully bound. Thankyou.

“Great Family Worship Resource”

My family loves Volume 1 of this devotional and uses it for our morning family worship.

We have been blessed by Alistair Begg's books and teachings over the years and are so thankful for this Volume 2 of a convicting and edifying devotional.

This devotional is a great resource for personal devotional time, as well (alongside your Bible reading)

Each day has a scripture passage then a reflection to follow. I enjoy this format and Begg's insight and commentary are deep and will have you pondering on the truths of scripture throughout the day.

I received a free copy of this book from The Good Book Company in exchange for an honest review.
