My review:
I knew Roberts’s The
Seventh Dimension: The Door was a terrific story; an allegory that I
thoroughly enjoyed, even though it’s targeted to young adult readers. It’s no
stretch, then, to see how this lovingly thought-out devotional adds even more
depth and meaning to The Door. Each of the twenty-six devotionals deals with an
aspect of life we all know, from being bullied, to holding secrets you think no
one else shares, to forgiveness and seeing God for who he really is. The
individual chapters features a passage from The Door, some long and some just a
sentence, which shows how the theme is played out in Roberts’s allegorical
world. The author then shares an episode from her life or from another person
or book in a brief essay that ties into the theme. Lovingly crafted prayers
follow.
The most unique aspect of the devotional is the QR codes
(and website links for those of us without smart phones) that take the reader
to a YouTube video or song that illustrates the devotional. I appreciated the
work that went into preparing this, and learned about a few artists I was
unfamiliar with.
Am I Okay, God is
a wonderful partner to your faith. Recommended for any junior high and up-aged
loved one; younger if more mature. Makes a fantastic godparent/sponsor gift,
too!
