The unique little book entitled A Jane Austen Devotional was published by Thomas Nelson* early in 2012.  Compiled and written by Steffany Woolsey, this Christian devotional is high quality in every way. From the beautiful cloth cover and thick pages to the insightful and obviously well-researched writing style, this gift edition will be a treasure to Jane Austen fans everywhere.

As a daily devotional, this volume can be read in various ways.  You can  simply to go through the book from start to finish, reading one excerpt and the corresponding devotion and Scripture verse each day.  A second approach is given by the table of contents which lists each devotional subject, allowing readers to scan through the list until they find a topic that interests them.  This basic versatility adds to the appeal of A Jane Austen Devotional.

Each excerpt in this book is accompanied by a thought-provoking and insightful devotion, written in a comfortable and easily followed style.  Fans (or friends!) of Elizabeth Bennet, Mr. Darcy, Emma Woodhouse, or any other of Jane Austen’s memorable characters will find the Biblical insights to be eye-opening and inspiring.  God’s Word shines through each page of this special little book, and will give hope and inspiration to anyone who reads it.
