Jesus Every Day, Jesus Every Way: A Weekly Devotional

by Lisa M. Hendey

Overview

Jesus is closer than you think—every day, every way. 

In Jesus Every Day, Jesus Every Way, author Lisa Hendey invites you into a vibrant friendship with Jesus, one that is present not only in quiet moments of prayer but also in the carpool lane, the grocery store, the hospital room, the beach, and everywhere in between.

This 52-week devotional offers a gentle yet powerful path to rediscovering prayer as a living, breathing dialogue. Through the sacred rhythm of Lectio Divina, each weekly entry guides you to reflect on Scripture, connect it to your life, and respond with heartfelt conversation. With relatable stories, cultural touchpoints, and thought-provoking prompts, Lisa helps us recognize the presence of Jesus in the ordinary as well as in the extraordinary.

Whether you’re a lifelong believer, a spiritual seeker, or you feel like your faith is stuck in a rut, Lisa shares in this book a new framework to reinvigorate your spiritual life and forge a fresh, natural, and deeply personal relationship with Christ—every day, in every way.

A Christian author offers a new approach to prayer. 

Raised in a devout Catholic home, Hendey spent much of her life preoccupied with “doing” prayer the “right” way. While her intentions were good, this approach often left her feeling like she was just going through the motions. “So I suspended my normal rituals,” she writes; she began instead to “focus on the beautiful gift of encountering Jesus every day, everywhere.”

Drawing on her own personal experiences, as well as the Catholic tradition of Lectio Divina (reading the Bible slowly in contemplative meditation), Hendey offers readers a yearlong path to reimagining Christian prayer. The text is divided into 52 chapters that correspond with weekly activities, and each chapter is written following the same basic template. After opening with a passage from the Bible, the author applies the reading to her own life with a short anecdote recounting her experiences as a wife, mother, and Catholic podcaster. Hendey then cites inspirational quotes related to that week’s message (these include everything from the virtues of persistence and hope to guidance on dealing with grief and doubt). … the quotes include observations from both Catholic saints and Protestant preachers in addition to lines taken from movies, novels, and pop culture. Each chapter concludes with daily reflection questions accompanied by lined paper for journaling and a relevant prayer. …the author offers a thoughtful spiritual resource for those seeking to incorporate their faith into their busy schedules.

A well-crafted reconceptualization of the Christian daily devotional. — Kirkus Reviews
