Book Blurb:
Is your faith on life support, or do you wonder if you even deserve to call yourself a Christian? Guess what? You don’t have to be a perfect, “churchy” person to experience God’s love!
In her easy-to-read, relatable narrative, Reilly explores:
How judgmental Christians hurt the case for Christ
How a focus on being a “cookie-cutter” Christian or belonging to the “correct” denomination can interrupt a personal relationship with God
How God powerfully handles our doubts and fears
The evidence of God available to every searcher
Can it really all be true — did Christ come to save us? What does that mean for each one of us? (From Goodreads)
Review:
~I'd like to thank the wonderful author for sending me a free copy in exchange for my honest review!
This was a great christian non-fiction, definitely one of my favorites. It's written very well, in an easy-to-understand way. It makes for a wonderful read for all, whether you've just became a christian, have walked with Jesus for the past decade, or don't know the first thing about God/Christianity. Reilly adds a lot of personal experience into these pages, from which you can see the Lord working in her life, and it can give you hope for your life as well.
Something else I really liked, was that at the end of each chapter there were two reflections, one for the Christian and another for the "searcher". It was interesting to get two different "end thoughts" out of reading the same chapter.
All in all, this was a great book that I definitely recommend!
Things I Loved:
-It was written very simply
-It showed you the struggles and real life of a Christian, and it was realistic
-Each of the chapters was summed up in two different ways
Things I Didn't Love:
-I don't think there anything I didn't love!
In Conclusion:
This is a great book for every Christian to read, no matter how old you are!
Recommended?:
Definitely!
