The Superheroes Devotional

At first, I thought this book was like other devotionals: equipped with one paragraph or two of some inspirational superhero themed story followed by a prayer and a Bible verse. As I read through the pages, I quickly realized that I was wrong. The Superheroes Devotional takes a closer look at the comicbook heroes we've read or seen in movies. Taking more support from film, the author focuses on each character, one at a time. And through each of their stories, whether origin or otherwise, he's found ways to pull out what lessons we can learn and how those lessons can already be found in the Bible.

Review to go live 2/1/2017.

Blending his love of comicbooks and the Bible, the author hopes to share his passion with others. This would be a good read for Middle School through High School and above. It isn't just an inspiring little story with some scripture. It is an all together unique devotional book. Honestly, it's just nice to have a book that focuses on the good and bad that these written heroes experience and how that, on a basic level, might apply to us.

Used this with my teenage boys, who are both comic book geeks (self-confessed), they have enjoyed it thoroughly. I myself, enjoy devotional reading on culture intersecting faith, and found this a fun read which definitely provoked, thought, prayer and discussion with my boys.  Great book.

I. Loved. This. Devotional. I struggle with most devotionals because I find they have a "theme" but it seems very cliched and not really to theme. This one was really cool because it focused on a different comic character or thing and how that relates to Christianity and exactly what we can learn from them. I always love books that talk about "secular" things and how God can be glorified through them. This was a unique devotional in that there weren't specific verses to study each day and I actually really loved that. Would highly recommend to any comic fan!

I like the way this book finds the good lessons in superhero stories. It's not really my kind of thing, but I have five sons who are superhero fans, so it is fun for me to read it and be able to pull the topics out for discussion.

If you're looking for a unique product, this is definitely it.  Great for all those fans of superheroes too!

I am not a big non-fiction reader, yet this devotional held not only my attention but my kids (middle school age) ate it up as well. This book doesn’t dummy-down scripture but points out biblical truths and lessons within popular comic books and comic-inspired movies.

Each section is about 3-4 pages long and the book is a bit smaller than an average trade paperback. Anyone, from a casual movie fan to the comic book fanatic, will enjoy reading through these 60 devotionals.

I would highly recommend this book to comic enthusiasts of all ages for a fun and insightful look at our favorite heroes through the lens of faith.

I requested the opportunity to read this book through the publisher. The opinions expressed are my own.

My son is a huge superhero fan.  He's the second biggest fan in the house -- second only to me.  So when I saw this devotional book, I knew it was something we would BOTH enjoy.

I love how the book ties in the mythology that the comic companies use without ever sacrificing Truth.  I love how the book ties in even very obscure plotlines and gives them the respect they deserve while showing how they reflect God and His Word.  The book is a very refreshing devotional, and is perfect for kids who love superheroes but don't always want to read their Bible.

HIGHLY recommended.
