Daily Wings

Devotionals That Make the Spirits Soar J. Sidlow Baxter has endeared himself to thousands in the United States and Great Britain through his Bible expositions in the pulpit and in countless books. His last devotional, Awake, My Heart, was published in 1960. Now we are happy to present a new devotional from the pen of this much-loved pastor - a book of exposition and poetry that will hold a distinctive place in the Baxter literature. Drawing on his rich heritage in the British tradition of hymnody, Dr. Baxter has provided a poem or hymn for each devotional meditation. These hymns “all came to me more or less spontaneously during my own times of communing with our risen Lord," he writes in his Preface to Daily Wings. They will inspire his readers, even as they have given him “wings to my own spirit.” There is a devotional meditation for each day of the year. These are to be read, in his words, “unhurriedly,” for “to read any book of daily expositions hastily is fatal to its intended ministry.”
