Review:

"Every morning [Joshua] sends me via e-mail a daily meditation. A snippet of Scripture for me to reflect on, and it has meant the world to me."--President Barack Obama, quoted in the New York Times

These words, drawn from ancient texts and trusted leaders, distill rare, urgent counsel during an age when we've never needed wisdom more."--Stephan Bauman, President & CEO, World Relief

"Where does the President look for wisdom? My friend Joshua DuBois provided President Obama a daily dose of Old and New Testament wisdom. With The President's Devotional, the rest of us have access to the devotions and meditations Joshua supplied to the President. What a treasure!"--Andy Stanley, founder and pastor of North Point Ministries

"No matter how busy and stressed you are; you're not busier or more stressed than the President, who read these devotionals in some of the highest pressure days of his life. We can all learn from this book how to encourage bless the leaders around us with wisdom and grace."--Russell D. Moore, Ph.D. President, Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, Southern Baptist Convention

The President's Devotional is a must read book of spiritual reflections from one of America's most influential Christian leaders."--Jonathan Merritt, senior columnist for Religion News Service and author of Jesus is Better Than You Imagined

"For years I have watched DuBois faithfully organize both Scriptures and prayers to strengthen the President in mind and spirit. Joshua has been the President's go-to bridge to spiritual leaders, to Biblical wisdom, and to faith. Now he can be our bridge, too."--Joel Hunter, Senior Pastor, Northland: A Church Distributed

"A daily spiritual oasis to help driven leaders catch their breath and reset their compass. Joshua's selection is comforting and challenging in good proportion. The devotionals provide, from within the Christian tradition, both the wide perspective and the moment for personal centering necessary to stay oriented on the leadership journey."--Sharon E. Watkins, General Minister and President, Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

"As we face mighty leadership challenges, we need a strong connection to our Almighty God. Every morning, Joshua had the privilege of sharing a daily devotional with our nation's leader. And now we have the privilege to learn from the same wisdom and insight that Joshua brought to the president."--Bobby Gruenewald, Innovation Leader, LifeChurch.tv and Founder, YouVersion: The Bible App
