This was a quick read and as usual from Max Lucado extremely, immensely encouraging. I need to dig into the attached study materials. I read it to test it for a future study resource. It's all about living the story God wrote for you using examples from the New Testament. You're created by God and part of His story. It's a great book.

I adore Max Lucado's books. They always fill me with such a peaceful feeling, and I love that he uses real life examples to explain biblical stories.

This particular book really struck me for some reason, and I think I must have just read it at the perfect time or something. It was definitely one of my favorites from him.

Max Lucado books have a wonderful way of speaking to my heart at just the right time and in just the right way! As usual, I highly recommend this book, and even if you don't have a small group to do the videos and questions with, do them anyway. Be honest with yourself and see how God is lovingly working you into His-story. 🥰😇🙏✝️💞

Insightful

Love Max Lucado. I always learn something new. This could not have come at a better time in my life. If you are in a place of struggling with life and your purpose, read this!!!

Written for Christians, but very new-to-the-faith ones. Lots of basic theology covered in a very basic way. Having said that, it assumes the reader is familiar with lots of traditions that might not be "old news" to everyone.

Outstandingly

I'm encouraged and motivated by Max. For used this message to help ease the physical and emotional pain of a current health setback. Max is always a fun, engaging and empowering read but this is now his best yet in my book!

Max Lucado has a straightforward way of presenting Christianity that leaves you wanting to more. I found this book to be encouraging and reflective. The study guide at the end presents provocative and inter questions. Highly recommend.

We all have a story, everyone’s story is different. Let’s find “our story” and learn the story of others around us.

So True!

Of course, Max's writing is one-of -a -kind! This book made me laugh, cry, and think! He reminds me how much I love the Lord!

[Jayne Bartrand · Rating 5 out of 5]

So encouraging and uplifting. What a perspective when we see life struggles in light of God’s planned eternity. Our life on earth is such a small part of the story.

Uplifting & heart healing. Max brings me to tears and fills me with joyful hope all in the space of a few paragraphs. Glory to Our Father fills every page.

Sometimes life is just hard. It doesn't make sense. We want to big things for God, but meanwhile we're struggling just to survive. This book helped me to step back and see the bigger picture. No doubt I'll return to it again :)

[Toby Brewer · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book completely changed my life!! It opened up a door of light for me to see and find my way back to Jesus Christ. God heard my cry and he answered. He knocked and I let him in. I will never go back into that darkness ever again. He loves me too much for that to happen. He will not let me go. The evening after I finished reading this book, I asked the question, “What is the truth?” He sent me a vision and told me what I had to do. I did it and became convicted deep down in my soul. He saved me that night, and I physically felt it. My faith is strengthened. I was sent into Godly Sorrow for three weeks before I understood what was happening. God gave me the gift of repentance. I strongly recommend this book.
