“Start your day with a bite-sized quote from a great book, coupled with an uplifting passage from the Bible and a prayer.” — Read the Spirit

Discover the sacred in the books we love and the stories that shape us!

Books have the power to shape us, surprise us, and speak to our souls. This 365-day devotional of literary and biblical reflections invites us to pay attention—to the mystery, the beauty, and the profound meaning woven into the stories we cherish and how they can be pathways to encountering the Divine.

  • Rediscover the Joy of Reading – Experience books as both tangible treasures and windows into deeper truths.
  • Daily Inspiration from Classic and Modern Literature – Immerse yourself in excerpts from over 200 literary works, thoughtfully paired with Scripture and prayer.
  • See Your Story in the Stories of Others – Encounter passages that illuminate your own journey, shaped by experience, memory, and faith.
  • Witness the Sacred in the Ordinary – Be drawn into the quiet, everyday moments where God is present, calling new life into existence.

The Courage to See is a devotional for book lovers who will find deeper meaning in the stories you cherish and let them illuminate your faith journey.
