First, let me say, that all this post shows December, I actually did not post this blog until January 22.
Across North America and around the world, millions of people are proclaiming a new anthem: "I Am Second." No longer are they number one. These people have come alive to the truth that God has a plan for this world...a plan that specifically includes them. In this book you will discover their stories--some from notable people and some not so well known-- who have had a life-changing encounter with Jesus Christ and are walking in radical obedience by putting Him first in their lives.
These stories are raw and real, dealing with the darkest moments of the human experience. Addictions, depression, infidelity, abortion, cancer, pornography, loneliness, jealousy, divorce, war...each story shows the redemptive power of Jesus...bringing purpose and true joy to every secret place of life. Along with each story, there are also helpful insights from the Bible and authentic life application for you or a group of your friends to discuss.
I have enjoyed reading the book. I can glean something from God in each testimony. I realized everyone has a story to tell and this book would encourage other believers to share theirs. If someone is uncertain about following Christ, I think this book can help them with their decision.
Should you buy the book? Hearing how God steps in and changes a life is worth every penny!
In all fairness, I must say, I did go online and found the personal videos much more engaging.
