Our Devotionals
All our devotionals were contributed by our readers on a voluntary basis. We are a community of
Bible-believing, Christ-centred, Spirit-filled Christians. We published new material daily for
almost 29 years from May 25, 1996, to March 31, 2025. Our archives are condensed for early duplicates,
and begin on September 1, 1996. The Home page shows excerpts with links to devotionals published
on that day of all available preceding years, arranged in random order. When it's a special
day like Palm Sunday, the website shows all the Palm Sunday devotionals. Set a bookmark or add a
PresbyCan icon to your smartphone home screen to make it easier to visit the website. Here is how to do it.
This is the place for the Internet community to share their personal prayer requests. On the PrayerLine page you can post your own request (anonymously if you wish) or read and pray about PrayerLine requests. There is an opportunity to let the people who posted the requests know that you prayed for them, and you can even add a personal message if you wish. To post a PrayerLine request or send an encouraging message, you must be registered, but that is a simple process. Find out how to register.
PresbyCan Home Screen Icon
Although PresbyCan doesn't have a mobile app for accessing our content, you
can still have a PresbyCan icon on your smartphone home screen. Creating an icon on your home screen
lets you use it as a one-tap portal to the PresbyCan website, instead of having to open a browser and
then selecting a bookmark or typing in "presbycan.ca". PresbyCan has a dynamic mobile-friendly layout,
so accessing it from your home screen becomes an app-like experience. Here's how to do it.
Devotionals published between March 25, 2006 and March 31, 2025 were accompanied by a recorded podcast. If a podcast is available, the audio control appears at the top of the devotional.
The PresbyCan Daily Devotional is an interactive page. You are encouraged to e-mail your comments, questions or appreciation directly to the devotional authors by clicking on their address. Comments left on the website are subject to moderation before being posted. Anonymous selections from feedback received by the writers, by the PresbyCan Daily Devotional office, and from the website are posted in the "Comments" section of the appropriate devotional page by the Subscriptions and Feedback Editor, Jane Anne Waller <daily@presbycan.ca>.

Thank you! In the rush of daily life it’s helpful to be encouraged by fellow Christian pilgrims of what a significant passage of Scripture became incarnate in their life’s journey. It is helpful to remind me that it is more than my individual relationship with Jesus but as part of the Body Christ.

Reading and reflecting on these well-written daily devotionals have helped me greatly to find peace and comfort.I truly feel that God speaks through all the gifted writers. God bless the Presbycan team, authors and community of readers.I am also so grateful for the PrayerLine. May God continue to bless this beautiful place!
Thanks for the morning devotionals. They are the first thing I read each day. I appreciate the thoughts and Scriptures that are shared. I am so thankful for all of you.
Well done and many, many thanks to the team! A great way to start the day, immersed in God’s Word, setting the stage to live His Word throughout the day!
The devotionals (thank God for all who contribute) are enhanced by PrayerLine and are a very fitting start to each day.
