How (Not) To Save The World

 

This was an inspiring and fun book to read. Saying that, I also felt like this is one of the most powerful book on evangelizing I have read. I always felt that I wasn't doing all I could for God because I do not go out on the mission field. However, the mission field can be at your own doorstep. 

We are asked to take care of those around us, just as Jesus did for everyone around him. We are to care and love others as well as share Jesus's love with them. This involves wanting to listen to other's stories and being willing to share your own.

I love the simplicity of this book and the variety of "call out" that are included throughout. These call outs emphasize the high points in a fun way.

I recommend this book most highly for all.

Book Review: My Summer With Gramps

My Summer With Gramps, by Ignatius Ryan, tells about a developing friendship between a 13 year-old boy and his grandfather. When this teen goes to spends each day one summer with his grandfather he learns so much than what was needed for his book report on "Death of a Salesman." The two talk about a wide variety of topics, including philosophy, politics, and history.

I love watching the new friendship grow between the boy and his grandfather. Plus the new words that the boy discovers, as well as the reader, means that his education is not limited to the classroom.

What a wonderful story. I am so glad I was given the opportunity to read, relish and review this book.

I was given this book by NetGalley and Createspace in exchange for my honest review.
