Make it a Daily Habit & Watch Your Life Change!
My son was given this as a gift for his Confirmation 7 years ago. He was a young teen who hardly shared much back the. It made such an impact on him that he suggested it to me. I couldn’t resist his encouragement so I read it and since have bought stacks of copies to share and give to others as gifts. Of course there are/were days weeks months over the years that I didn’t read daily but buying the book on the app and now the audio has been awesome so now I have it with me wherever and whenever I need Jesus’s companionship❤️😇Show lessMel5571
Worst ever
Hugh disappointment. I have discontinued usage until remedy. THE WAY IT SHOULD BE LIVING IN DEPENDENCE ON ME is the way to enjoy abundant life. You are learning to appreciate tough times because they amplify your awareness of My Presence. Tasks that you used to dread are becoming rich opportunities to enjoy My closeness. When you feel tired, you remember that I am your Strength; you take pleasure in leaning on Me. I am pleased by your tendency to turn to Me more and more frequently, especially when you are alone. When you are with other people, you often lose sight of My Presence. Your fear of displeasing people puts you in bondage to them, and they become your primary focus. When you realize this has happened, whisper My Name; this tiny act of trust brings Me to the forefront of your consciousness, where I belong. As you bask in the blessing of My nearness, My life can flow through you to others. This is abundant life! I love you, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. —Psalm 18:1–2 Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe. —Proverbs 29:25 “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” —John 10:10 nkjvShow lesssteve9149

Thank you for your review. I've given the developers a note with your feedback. We appreciate your patience as we work to make the Jesus Calling App more approachable for everyoneJesus Calling
I have had and read this book many times along with others Sarah Young has written. There has NEVER been a day when I have been experiencing fear, anxiety, grief, anger or any other problems this world brings that the reading wasn’t EXACTLY what I needed to hear from the Lord. Sarah is a blessed tool who allows God to work through her to minister to millions of others. She has a weakened physical body but she stands tall and deeply rooted in the word of God.
May God continue to bless you. Looking forward to “Jesus Listens”.Show lessA child og God
Good but still buggy
1: three of the books have daily readings. Todays reading button should let you choose which book you want to read out of. If you choose another book other than Jesus calling to read, when you go back to the home page and click todays reading it goes to like Jan of that other book. If you click the chapters button and scroll to todays date it switches back to Jesus calling. But if you leave that and click todays reading again it just goes back to the first chapter of your previously read book UNLESS you scroll to the bottom of the home page, click Jesus calling, then exit the chapter selector, NOW you can click todays reading and see todays date in Jesus calling only. What a crazy bug I hope they get it fixed!!
2: the Jesus Listens audiobook is advertised as having multiple narrators and musical scoring. It has neither. Only one guy talking.Show lessReaderjoe93

Hello. Thank you for your feedback. For issues with the audio, please email JesusCallingApp@harpercollins.com for assistance troubleshooting with one of our customer service representatives.VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE NEW UPDATE!
I agree with every other review on this page werein the readers are very upset about the new update. Please update and change it back to the way it was before. It is just sooooo frustrating that you can’t even go to the next page/day by just tapping or swiping the bottom. Also, if you miss a couple of days readings and you want to catch up, you have to go back to the homepage where there is a listing of the month and day, but it always takes you back to the first of the year so you have to scroll all the way down to the find the month and day that you want to read. It is so annoying!!! I am extremely disappointed with this new update. It’s just ridiculous!!… and not easy to use at all. It sounds like you have ALOT of readers that are upset. You need to make some changes!!!Show lessMoolahT

Thank you for your feedback. The navigation issue between dates is a known issue for the developers, who are actively working on a solution. We appreciate your patience as they work to make Jesus Calling a better application for all of our users.Why did the app for Jesus Calling change?
My husband and I have had Jesus Calling on our phones for a long time. We also have hard copies of the book. The words have directed and comforted us for years
My husbands phone still has the appearance/look and intro of the original app which I loved. His app shows the original cover of the book and then you immediately see God’s hands as the day’s devotional loads. The daily reading appears immediately once loaded.
My phone’s app has changed and I can’t get the original appearance back. For me, being drawn into the hands as it loads calms me and having it go directly into the daily reading was perfect. I miss that intro. Now I read from my book rather than the app I enjoyed so much.Show lessGrandma1$@3

Changes
It is hard on old people when you keep changing the format. I know market research probably shows that people love change and they buy and use the app more when you keep changing it, but I am Just noting that in my case, that is not true. Unless there is An improvement, which I don’t see in This format. In fact, although I have read Jesus Calling every morning for years, I have recently stopped looking at it because I hate The format so much. It is harder to read, the demarcation between scripture and comment is not Detectable, etc etc. Still give The contents Five stars, but I hate The formatting, maybe Because I am old and don’t like change. I don’t know! Just voicing my opinion. Take Care, dear Friend And Mutual God lover!Show lessGratie 23

Hi Gratie 23. We're saddened to see you dislike the new format so much, but we do thank you for your feedback. If you'd like to provide the developers with a more detailed description of what specifically doesn't work about the new formatting for you, I encourage you to email JesusCallingApp@harpercollins.com.Disappointed with Update
One of the joys I had with this devotional was that I could copy and paste it into emails to share with friends and family to encourage them. Every now and then as I read a particular day’s devotional, God would bring someone to mind that might find encouragement from that particular day’s scripture. I would copy and paste it into a text message with the title: Jesus Calling plus the date. It was such an easy way for me to minister to that person in a way that was meaningful to them. I have one friend in particular that has suffered multiple brain injuries that loved it when I shared this devotional with her. Now I’m no longer able to without her having to purchase and download the application on her phone. She needs things kept simple and this latest update has made it more complicated to share with her. All that to say, I’m not receiving the enjoyment or benefit that I once experienced with this app. So sad and disappointing. I rarely read it anymore.Show less1RSG
