As spiritual
beings we tend to look for the meaning in the words authors put to paper. Such is the case with this book. Selena Sarns has worked to link the inevitable
spiritual tendencies in this human drama to the love and works of God even
though there is no mention of Him; good, bad, or otherwise.
So, I read
this devotional book after I saw the first movie. I have not read the series as yet, but I did
find the movie enjoyable. This book of
devotions covers the entire book series so there are spoilers. I had a good idea of what to expect from
certain scenes in the second movie based on this book.
Selena Sarns
does a good job of relating how a scene from the books reflects, or does not reflect,
the characteristics of Jesus and how His followers should behave towards
others. Each devotion starts with a
passage of scripture followed by a summary of a scene from the series. While God may not be a specific part of the
Hunger Games series itself, God is very present in this devotion.
This is
great for a parent, or friend, of a die-hard Hunger Games junkie—and there seem
to be a lot of those. Whether it’s a
book you read together with you child or just to gain knowledge to help a
friend think more deeply about Jesus Christ, this book is worth reading.
