JAMES MONTGOMERY BOICE, COMPILED BY D MARION CLARK

365 Days of Life-Giving Devotions

Beloved pastor and teacher James Montgomery Boice once said that the “study of the Bible must be the consuming passion of a believer’s life.” God’s Word is like an endless stream of clear, revitalizing water that refreshes our spirits–but only if we drink deeply from it.

Covering the full span of Boice’s incredible lifetime of ministry, the devotional readings in Come to the Waters will teach you to draw upon the vast well of God’s mercy and grace found in the Scriptures. Tracing the magnificent story of salvation and God’s sovereignty from Genesis to Revelation, Boice encourages you to know and obey God’s Word and to glorify God with your whole life. Each reading includes a Scripture text, and topical and Scripture indexes help you find just the right devotion for your day.

If your soul is thirsting, come to the waters.

“Study of the Bible must be the consuming passion of a believer’s life.” So said James Montgomery Boice—and he practiced what he preached. Throughout the decades of his faithful church ministry, Boice devoted himself to the Word of God for the glory of God. This yearlong devotional selects from the fruit of his labor, distilling his teaching into 365 readings from Genesis to Revelation. A topical index and a Scripture index allow you to tailor your own reading plan.

In the spirit of Boice, the devotions are not moralistically superficial—intended to make you a better person. Instead they are intended to lead you every day to your only hope: Jesus Christ, the life-giving Living Water for your soul.
