Literary enthusiasts, take note!
The wisdom and wit of Jane Austen and Charles Dickens is offered in two separate titles as a part of Thomas Nelson's new Devotional Classics series: A Charles Dickens Devotional and A Jane Austen Devotional, both in a beautiful cloth hardcover.
A Charles Dickens Devotional features some of Dickens' brightest gems: Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities, Oliver Twist, and A Christmas Carol, all of which are richly woven stories brimming with the fruits of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness andself-control. Add in the topical devotional thoughts and you have an abundance of insight and guidance for faithful readers.
Short excerpts from Austen's classics are featured in A Jane Austen Devotional: Northanger Abbey, Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility, Persuasion, Mansfield Park, and Emma. Austen's devotional also includes a daily thought and Scripture that meaningfully translates to women's everyday lives. Time and time again, Austen shows us through her words what love truly is; built on action, character, and honor.
While these authors may have lived hundreds of years ago, their stories still translate meaningfully to modern life.
A Charles Dickens and A Jane Austen Devotional are available in stores in January 2012.

i can day dream about reading both of these, fairly easily.
What a beautiful post. Sounds like some great books to read.... Will have to add to wish list on Amazon & slowly go through all my books to read. Currently I'm reading "Discover the Gift" by Shajen Joy Aziz. Powerful book on forgiveness and how it changed her world.
