The Upper Room is a modern daily devotion which follows the normal structure of starting with a verse before writing a short and thought provoking article.
As well as the main devotion, each day also has a ‘thought for the day’, a prayer, a prayer focus and a related reading. These really help to make sure you don’t just read the devotion and stop there as it leads you into prayer.
Getting the devotion
The Upper Room is accessible either directly on the web page, via email or on a mobile device. You can get a printed copy, but unlike The Word for Today, there is a charge for this.
Summary
The Upper Room is a good, modern daily devotional.
Strengths
- Well written articles
- Simple to use website
Weaknesses
- Podcast and RSS formats would be good additions
How much does the Upper Rooms cost?
God Bless,

It costs $12 for 6 issues (2 months of devotions in each issue) so that price is for the year. I use The Upper Room daily and really like it. The devotions are written by ordinary people who have a story or experience to share.
i really want to receive daily devotion of the upper room to gain strength and read god’s word.
by reading the upper room daily, will get me closer to christ the savior.
I would love to read your encouraging devotion
each morning.
I run the Central Presbyterian Homeless shelter ministry for Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Peachtree City, GA.
I am looking for a devotional to bring to the 70 men we feed, as I would also like to feed them spiritually.
I would appreciate/respect your help and ideas:)

Subscribing to the Upper Room Daily Devotional is a hit and miss situation. At times the booklets arrive on time. At times, they are late. This is somewhat frustrating. I called three weeks ago about receiving my November/December 2020 issue. To date I have not received it. Please rectify this matter.
I receive Upper Room each month for my personal devotions each morning. My cousin Barbara Chelette lives in Jacksonville, Florida and would like to receive this publication to help her read her Bible each morning.
I will pay for her publication if you will let me know how much it is and ask you to please send her the August book of devotions. Her information is below. Thank you.
