Description
Millions of Americans keep bedside books of prayer and meditative reflection -- collections of daily passages to stimulate spiritual thought and advancement.

Material fine, daily delivery is needed to have the right fe
The Intellectual Devotional material is fine, but it does not have the DailLit OR daily devotional 'feel' without the daily delivery to my inbox.
