[edit] Contents

40 Days with God is a day-to-day devotional book featuring 40 topics studied by Rebecca (one for each day), her thoughts on the topic, Bible passages to back up her thoughts, questions to ask yourself and talk to God about, and photos of Rebecca with her friends and family. In the book, Rebecca talks about subjects such as worship, setting an example, dealing with pain, and not bowing to the world.
