“Linguist, wordsmith and poet John Marshall loves ‘those occasions when the Lord very obviously shows up and does something wonderful’. His writings are filled with stories of how, in ordinary day-to-day life, when praying or when reading the Bible, God says something surprising and turns a mundane moment into a life-changing experience.

Here, a collection of John’s stories are gathered from his spiritual journal and presented in a daily devotional format, each with a Bible verse to meditate on, a poem to delight and challenge the heart, and a prayer to help us get started in our conversation with God.”
