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)
The discipline of daily Bible-reading is one that is always in danger of becoming routine or a chore. That is where a good devotional guide can be helpful in keeping the familiar stories and teachings of Scripture fresh and thought-provoking. Alistair Begg has produced one such volume. Like Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening, this is not a guide to extended passages of Scripture but a series of reflections on particular verses touching particular aspects of the faith. Each one is designed to make the Christian think more clearly, love God more fervently, and act in ways that are more godly. For those looking for a book that will reinvigorate their devotions, this book might well be it. (Commenting on Volume 1)
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.

I received Truth for Life Volume 1 last year as a Christmas gift. I enjoyed reading each days devotion and insight by Begg and I just had to purchase Volume 2.to continue with Begg in 2023. A greater writer and interpreter of scripture. Thank you.

Many devotional books tend to be inspirational in nature and not very biblically rich. Truth For Life Volume Two is not one of these devotionals. For decades Pastor Begg has been known for biblically faithful preaching and its practical application for the Christian life. Truth For Life is specifically designed to encourage the reader to grow deep in God’s word and apply it practically to their daily lives. This is accomplished in three ways. First, each devotion consists of biblically rich material based around the text selected for each day. Second, the book provides practical application through a feature found at the end of each devotion consisting of three questions. These questions point the reader to practical application of the biblical text in one’s head, heart, and hands. Third, the book provides daily Bible reading plan that encourages deeper study in God’s word.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
I use this saying to describe this devotional because it follows the same pattern as the first volume.
I really enjoyed the first volume, so much so that I have bought it multiple times for people on their birthdays and I will do the same with this volume as I think it is the perfect gift for those who love devotionals.
The cover once again is very aesthetically pleasing and the content it contains is even more pleasing as it enriches the soul.
There are 365 readings, one for each day, which makes it a great Christmas present as the person can then begin on January 1st and read throughout the year.
What is great about this devotion is that it is built not to take place of your Bible reading but rather to supplement it as an addition in your day. Alistair Begg does a good job of wanting to encourage people to have a love for God's word by not only providing his thoughts by expounding on scripture but also by providing a daily Bible reading plan at the bottom of each page to encourage the reader to read the Bible in a year.
Along with each reading are symbols of head, heart and hands which was also found in the first volume.
These are in place to have you question as you read:
* How is God calling me to think differently?
* How is God reordering my hearts affections - what I love?
* What is God calling me to do as I go about my day today?
This is very helpful when reading to encourage us to be not only hearers of the word, but doer's.
I highly recommend this devotional and give it 5 stars!
