Even better than the first one! I got to love Elijah through these books, it is beautifully written. Made me cry a couple of times too.
Highly highly recommend!

I felt many emotions while reading the second book in the elements series but the main one was genuine awe. It’s really hard in this day and age to give up everything, pick up your cross and walk with God but that’s exactly what Elijah did.

From running around the streets of Ottawa and handing out roses to people like a lunatic, to creating a safe haven for ex-prostitues, taking the blame for someone else’s crime and using that to minister in prison and finally to bringing youth back to church, Elijah is the picture of modern day ministry.

What struck me the most about Elijah was his genuine lack of care to what people around him thought. As someone who is trying to unlearn seeking validation from others, seeing Elijah be so free and not care about what people thought of him and instead caring that God knows his heart was beautiful and freeing to read about. I would 10/10 recommend this book series and can’t wait to read more by this author!

A beautiful book. It should be made into a movie.

I love Elijah and I’ve gotten emotional multiple times reading this book. It’s very inspiring and makes me pause and reflect on how I should be loving more and showing gratitude. I prefer the first book, but it’s overall really enjoyable following Elijah through his journey.

I feel bad saying this, but I think the writing could be better. There are some corny lines like when the writer calls, Oxford, uncle Oxford - it feels like an older person trying to sound Gen Z/ relatable. And I found it annoying that nobody can just laugh.They had to burst out laughing.… Some plots are dragged and some flown through too fast. I found both books worth reading and really emotional but still hard to finish. There are some unnecessary details and distractions. The stories could’ve been condensed and that would make the book perhaps easier to read? but still a great book in a must read for all Christians.

This, as well as the first book, was deeply life changing. I can’t say that about any other book I’ve read. It makes sense why the author is anonymous. The amount of wisdom personified in not only the main character, but many of the others, was like spring water to my soul. Beauty. Wisdom. Depth. Fullness. Meaning.

Even if you don’t believe in God or care too much about religion, this book can explain who the Christian God is through Elijah. If you find earth and water a little slow, I promise you that fire and wind picks up and leaves you electrified.

No words can describe the beauty of this novel. I don't know how this man topped the first book, but he certainly did. A fitting sequel. Full of emotion. Full of wisdom. Life. Changing.
