Review of Jesus First for Men: 365 Devotions to Start Your Day
Jesus First for Men, from BroadStreet Publishing Group, is exactly what the title promises: a year’s worth of short daily devotions built around making Christ the first priority of the day instead of an afterthought. It has sold over 100,000 copies and earned an ECPA Bronze Milestone Sales Award, which says something about how many men have found the format useful. Each entry is brief, built around a Scripture passage and a short reflection, and designed to be read in a few minutes before the day gets away from you. The themes rotate through daily challenges, gratitude, perseverance, and spiritual growth, and the writing stays practical rather than abstract. Matthew 6:33, “seek first the kingdom of God,” is a recurring anchor point for the whole collection, which fits the book’s premise: put Jesus first, and let everything else follow from there. The physical construction is worth mentioning too. It’s a hardcover with a faux leather cover, two-tone heat debossing, and Smyth-sewn binding, meaning it lays flat and holds up to daily use instead of falling apart within a year. This isn’t a devotional that requires long blocks of time or deep theological background. It’s built for men who want a consistent, few-minutes-a-day habit of starting with Scripture instead of a phone, and the 365-day structure makes that habit easy to sustain.Get Jesus First for Men on Amazon
