Although this devotional is geared toward youth, as an adult, I found Come and See to be incredibly liberating, intriguing, and motivational. Each chapter explores popular Bible stories with fresh perspective, highlighting the wonders and miracles of God in a way that feels alive and accessible.

What stood out to me most was how liberating and motivational the book is. It doesn’t just retell Bible stories; it encourages readers, regardless of age, to see themselves in God's story. Whether you're new to faith or seasoned in your walk, this devotional opens your heart to the simplicity and depth of God's love.

I appreciated how the book made Scripture feel personal and relevant, reminding me that God's story is for everyone, no matter your age. It encouraged me to reflect, grow in faith, and truly “come and see” the goodness of God in new ways.

This is a devotional I’d recommend to both youth and adults alike. It’s timeless, encouraging, and beautifully written.

I’m letting this one go. I won’t give a star rating on Goodreads, because I don’t think it’s fair. I’m not the intended audience (younger adult and maybe teens), and I just don’t think it suits my current faith “crisis”. Given the author, who runs Queer Theology, I definitely expected more obvious… queer content? I mean, I know Queer Theology already has a queer devotional, but I just expected a bit more.

These 40 short reflections on Christian scripture are thoughtful, well written, and grounded in quality biblical scholarship. They would work well for individual or group study settings. Each one includes a reading and reflection and then questions that invite you to connect what you’ve learned to your feelings (heart) and actions (hands). This wholistic approach is rare, and I appreciate it.

The book seems to be geared to teen/younger readers and so I am confused that a description to that effect doesn’t appear on the cover or description of the book.
