I recently had a chance to review A Mindful Moment, a teen devotional that explores how to let go of negative emotions and restless thoughts and find the still, small voice of God deep within.
This devotional was perfect for our family. The length was just right for some nice family time at the end of the day - short enough that we could discuss the topic more in detail if we needed to, long enough that it felt complete. Although it's geared for teens, it was a nice way to end my day as an adult as well.
