This book is testimony to what a dream, passion and persistence can accomplish. What started as an occasional blog has now become a book with a devotion for every day of the year.

Because of that it will be well received by this generation. - Ned Mervich, 20-somethings pastor, North Coast Church

'Any author who can quote 'Good Will Hunting' while talking
about Jesus has my attention. Renee Johnson does that while encouraging
20-somethings to grow in a new and fresh way. With a acknowledgement of a messy
spirituality and a raw unfiltered style Renee has written a devotional that should
sit on the bedside of every 20-something Christ-follower you know.' – Shawn

“To a generation of people today reality TV is real, text messaging is communication, and Facebook is friendship. In this generation, the timeless, all inspired Word of God can be seen as an outdated manual with little to offer the modern sojourner. It takes a creative, insightful and dare I say younger writer like Renee Johnson to bridge the gap between the 20 something, technically savvy, experiential generation and the ever applicable, life change Word of God. Renee understands her generation. Renee’s devotional will help her generation understand God’s Word.” - Pastor Chico Goff, Adjunct Professor at Biola University, Founding Pastor of Mission Hills Church in San Marcos, Ca.

Renee “the Devotional Diva” Johnson not only recognizes the necessity of keeping 20-somethings connected and practicing daily Bible reading, but she is also a member of that group, meeting with and ministering to them regularly.

Renee’s passion for the twenty-something crowd is refreshing! One of the critical groups over looked in the church today is the single person. Often times the church is concerned about the children, teenager and then jumps to the young married with children, leaving the single person to fend for themselves. Renee understands that the church cannot afford to neglect the twenty-something. She is living what she is writing. - Scott Anderson, Inspirational Speaker.
