This book is an answer to prayer. I was looking for simple devotions camp counselors could use with our day camp students, and along came Character.

The devotions are well written, and the stories thoroughly mapped out. The 52 weeks of devotions—five devotions per week—can be used in a camp or retreat setting or for spiritual nourishment between Sunday School classes.

My only disappointment is the yes or no questions, wrapping up each devotion, are sometimes too simplistic. More profound questions, encouraging students to dig deeper into the story, would have made this devotion an even better resource.
