These devotions (80 in total) are based on the format laid out in my blog (terrynightingale.com). Each one is between 450-600 words. For those who want to linger longer, there are suggested prayers. Each devotion is based on at least one verse of scripture or a Bible story. The text of the Bible is the main focus, accompanied by stories, thoughts, or questions. The aim of each is to encourage, "build up", but also challenge the listener to a deeper walk with God and obedience to his word.

Everyone has setbacks. Most of us know what disappointment feels like. Some of us know the bitter taste of failure. There are times when life has not gone the way we hoped it would. We may feel responsible, or we may feel we are the victim, but, either way, how can we find closure and move on? This book suggests that intentional reflection on past experiences in the presence of God may be the key that is needed for future fruitfulness. In other words, to effectively move forward in the purposes of God, we may first need to look back.
