Start Every Day With the Gospel. Span the Whole of Scripture. Let Truth Anchor Your Life.
Every Christian knows that the way you start the day matters. What you set your mind and heart on in those first quiet moments shapes everything that follows — your perspective, your responses, your sense of who you are and what you are living for. And for the Christian, there is no better place to begin than with the gospel — the truth that anchors everything.
Truth for Life: Volume 2 is the second collection of 365 Christ-centred daily devotions from Alistair Begg — one of the most beloved and trusted Bible teachers of our generation. Each devotion is concise, warm, and carefully crafted — reflecting the same clear, faithful exposition and thoughtful application that have made Alistair's radio ministry one of the most widely listened-to in the Christian world.
Spanning the whole of Scripture — from Genesis to Revelation — these devotions show us the greatness and grace of God on every page of his Word, and thrill our hearts to live as his children. Whether you are a new Christian beginning to build a daily devotional habit or a mature believer wanting a rich, gospel-saturated companion for your morning quiet time, Truth for Life: Volume 2 will engage your mind, stir your heart, and send you into each day reminded of the truth that truly matters.
