My take on this book:
Sometimes it takes reading a story that someone else writes to hear the voice of God in such a way that the story touches your heart and allows you to open your eyes and heart to the message that God is trying to get across to you. Well that's the sort of book The Beauty of Grace is, it's filled with short stories written by some of today's most popular writers, stories that will stir the soul, touch the heart and perhaps even open your eyes and ears to the message God might be trying to impart to you. Broken down into seven different topics including purpose,the big picture, surrender,trust, lessons learned, hope and encouragement, and worship, each topic includes several different stories that are meant to encourage and inspire. This is such a wonderful book, from the cover to the pages inside it's like a breath of fresh spring air. Each story includes a scripture verse that correlates with what was just read. While I had heard of several of the authors, a few were new to me, so it was a great way to sample their work.Overall a wonderful book that I used as a daily devotional, reading it morning and evening.
A complimentary copy of this book was provided for review.
