Baker opens his heart and lets us in on a secret: he's a failure at living the Christian life... but he shows us that failures look to Jesus and in our weakness we become strong in his strength.
So many Christian books intending to inspire just feed the empty promise of self-effort but Baker challenges us to give up and dare to believe in God's grace through Jesus Christ based on what he objectively accomplished on our behalf 2000 years ago on the cross! Each of the 101 cups is a sip of applied truth of a believer's sonship.
We should hand these out like carrot sticks to our friends hung up on self-absorbed law keeping (especially the worst legalists I know: me, myself and I)...

Excellent collection of brief, one page devotionals with a photo on the opposite page. Good for couples' devotions. The interesting photos carry along the water theme of the book. The common theme is that the grace of God extends to believers through all of their lives: We are saved by grace and live by grace as well, not by law-keeping or our own performance. We are accepted by the Father because of Christ's finished work, we can rest from our own. The author gently shows us the many ways we lapse back into justifying ourselves needlessly. Well worth the read.

This book speaks to your heart, and preaches the gospel into your every-day life. It's refreshingly "practical". I've been using it as a devotional, too, writing notes and thoughts in the margins of the pages and around the beautiful black & white photographs.
It also makes a perfect gift!

This book of single page devotions deals with life of a Christian through all its doubting, self-absorbed, and hopeless days. But on the upside, it leads you to the well that never runs dry in Christ. It is full of all the walls we erect, trails we wind through and confusion we encounter in our everyday lives. But the author reminds us that the Lord is there in each moment and each trial to help us drink from the everlasting waters. Photos accompany each "cup" and they underscore the text marvelously. Each day is not guaranteed a scripture passage, but each reference is biblically based in God's love. What more could you ask for in a devotional?
