A Beautiful Year with Jesus (Sc): The Daily Devotional for 365 Days in the Bible

A Beautiful Year with Jesus is a thoughtfully crafted devotional that combines Scripture, prayer, and contemplative imagery to invite you into a peaceful rhythm of daily connection with God.

Created with simplicity and depth in mind, this 30-day devotional is especially suited for those who long to connect with God but struggle to find the time. Each entry is short, meaningful, and easy to engage with--offering a Bible passage, a brief reflection, and a closing prayer that help you pause, recenter, and draw near to God, even in life's busiest seasons.

To create a richer, more meditative experience, A Beautiful Year with Jesus features original artwork by two gifted artists: Rachel Yumi Chung and Katie Waiyu. Rachel, based in Virginia, paints whimsical, joy-filled worlds deeply rooted in faith, Korean heritage, and a sense of wonder. Katie, based in the UK with roots in Hong Kong, crafts art that celebrates the quiet beauty of everyday life and invites the viewer into rest. Together, their illustrations infuse each page with visual peace and gentle reflection.

Whether you begin your mornings with it or return to it in quiet moments throughout the day, A Beautiful Year with Jesus offers space to slow down, breathe deeply, and encounter the presence of Jesus--one day at a time.
