In line with the rest of the Worship Devotional series, December's issue is wonderfully presented - complete with Bible passages, activities and prayers - in a useful 31 part package. The biblical insights set out within the hardback book are thought-provoking and the prayers are relevant and manageable; it's an intriguing idea to look closer into the lyrics of songs, rather than thoughtlessly singing them on a Sunday morning, and this product has all you need for a straightforward daily worship routine. This two disc set features songs from renowned worship acts like Delirious?, Tim Hughes, Ben Cantelon and Stuart Townend, although I personally would like to have heard their bigger hits, rather than some of these lesser known numbers here. But there are some classics included like "Everlasting God" and "I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever". Being December's release, I was expecting this particular devotional to be rather Christmas-heavy, but (aside from the 25th) there seems to be very little mention of the incarnation.

Product Description
The final release in the year-long series contains thirty powerful worship tracks. With Stuart Townend, Delirious?, Tim Hughes, Brenton Brown and many more represented, December’s Worship Devotional is every bit as great an album as the previous eleven releases in the series.
As ever the album contains a devotional booklet, matching each track with thought-provoking text, prayers and action points to guide the listener. Perfect for the commute, the lunch-time break or the end of day wind-down, Worship Devotional has been a great series that has inspired many.
