Summary: Daily Devotional for Men
Comment: Imagine "Our Daily Bread," written in a more contemporary tone, slanted for a male audience. Then add stiff subscription ads. That's "Men of Integrity."
"Men of Integrity" is an anecdotal, vignette-driven daily devotional magazine. Like "Our Daily Bread," it takes the reader into a Scripture with some challenges. It is not as deep as "My Utmost for His Highest," or as spiritually pushing, but it does serve a good purpose.
Topics in the issue in my hand include racism, reconciliation, marital infidelity, corruption, children and fatherhood, profanity, commitment to attending church, and temptation. A weekly roundup sums up each week with questions to remind the reader.
For the man on the go, the one who is not ready or willing to read Scripture at length, this is perfect. It is small, slipping easily into a pocket for lunchtime or train-ride reading. It is bimonthly, and supplies two months worth of devotionals.
A thoughtful man could spend 30 minutes on each day's chapter, reading through the biblical passages and thinking through the questions. A casual reader will finish it in five minutes.
Cobranded by "Promises Keepers," Christianity Today holds true to its mission, "To engage, encourage, and equip the church worldwide, sharing the depth and transforming power of the Gospel as it permeates all spheres of life."
The only real negative is the ad cards stitched in. Those can be ripped out, and tossed away.
I fully recommend subscribing to "Men of Integrity."
