I liked the concept of the book and the emphasis on never giving up. I don’t know how many times I have taken the wrong path but God was always there. I remember a time when my husband and I were deeply hurt by a church we had attended for eight years. We were the Children’s Pastors and also lead a Marriage Ministry group. There was a disagreement and before we knew it we were asked to leave the church. We were broken and didn’t understand what had happened. But in the midst of the storm, I had reached out to a friend at another church. Her pastor spoke to me and said we were welcomed there and wanted me to teach in the Children’s Church. I’ll never forget the pastor saying, “we can’t have one of God’s children lost so please come and find restoration.”

I love how the author reminds us that we don’t need to sit on the sidelines. God can use each of us even when we sin. He wants us restored and filled with joy and confidence. He wants us to trust Him and have faith in Him. The chapter about faith was very interesting to read. I liked how the author breaks the word down and gives illustrations between faith and hope. He gives examples from the Bible where people had faith and stood firmly in their belief.

I admit that I took my time in the chapter about saying yes. His point is that we don’t want to miss opportunities just because we don’t think we are equipped. I have said no to ministry opportunities because I was scared that I would fail or I would not know what to say. I struggle with confidence and this chapter really helped me.

The book is a great tool to use as you dig deeper into His Word. Each chapter emphasizes having a personal relationship with God. His examples are good and uses scriptures throughout the book. At the end of the book you will find discussion questions divided up for each chapter. This would be a great book to use in a small group setting or for individual use.

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.
