Max Lucado did it again. In this very beautiful gift book he presents in eight chapters a total of fifty seven very touching stories of love, kindness, commitment, compassion, hope, courage, wisdom and friendship. If you are the hard type, this book is for you, because it will soften you till you melt completely. If you are the soft type, this book is also for you, because it will make you strong on your faith and purposes in life.
All the stories that are part of this book were published before as part of other books from the author. This is a magnificent collection of the most touching ones in a single volume.
The author is giving one hundred percent of his royalties from this book to benefit children and families through World Vision and other ministries of faith-based compassion.
This book was written by Max Lucado in 2010 and published by Thomas Nelson and they were kind enough to send me a copy for reviewing through their Thomas Nelson Book Review Bloggers Program.

This was a lovely little collection of inspirational spiritual quotes and very short stories. It has a few different categories ranging from stories of people that were changed by wisdom, faith, kindness, ect.. You don't have to be spiritual to enjoy stories about kind people! This is a book for everyone! ( )

This is a small book, with beautiful pictures, and short, inspiring stories and Bible quotes throughout. There is even a page where you can write who you are giving the book to, and how they changed your life.

The heartwarming stories are divided into these sections: love, kindness, commitment, compassion, hope, courage, wisdom and friendship. Sometimes it is nice to take the time to make connections. Instead of thinking about the day to day grind, and the list of things to do, we can pause and think about what really matters in life, and thank the people who have made a difference.

Many of the stories are about Christians and Christianity. All of the stories have already been published in other books by Max Lucado. Since I haven't read any of his other books, this did not bother me, but I would imagine that someone expecting new stories might be disappointed.

I received this book from Thomas Nelson in exchange of this unbiased review. ( )
