Strong and inspiring! This book helps to realize that it you don't have to be super holy, wise, strong or talented to be a faithful follower of God. With the little faith or an ordinary person like me and you, God can work miracles!
This book explores a few situations from the Bible in which an ordinary person (just like us), was abled by God to do extraordinary things. It often was sufficient for the person to live their live with a God-centered mindset, and the trust, faith and obedience that naturally comes with such a mindset. Amazing!
The only thing I didn't appreciate was the author's attempts at translating scripture to English by himself. It is great to translate terms that might be ambiguous, but setting entire passage in more modern-day language doesn't seem right to me. :') Authorised translations aren't written for naught...

A book that was characterised as ordinary people doing extraordinary things for God. I thought I would be inspired but unfortunately I felt it was very dry in the style of writing.
