Seven-Mile Miracle by Steven Furtick

What an amazing book to read for such an important time in the Catholic year.


I followed along reading his book during Easter and it brought to light all the nuances of Jesus' death and resurrection that I have missed out on through the years.

Every few days I read a new section of this story. It is put together by the seven last words of Jesus before his resurrection. And can I say that it was transformative?!?!?

The way that Furtick puts together these chapters and explains this in such a way that is relatable to anyone is phenomenal. At the end of each section there are scriptures that you can reference in the Bible to see the words for yourself and how they change per each writers way of writing and perspective.
Give this book a chance to change the way you see things and how you allow such an important time in our lives to grow with you and through you to others. 

I would recommend this book to anyone who needs a little bit more push to read something during the Lent/Easter season.

A Call to Mercy by Mother Teresa Review

A Call to Mercy by Mother Teresa

This book is just AMAZING. The profound knowledge and love that is evident in the collection of stories and blurbs from Mother Teresa is just eye opening! I chose to read this book because I am always fascinated by what others with such great faith have to share with us just through their actions and words.

The language that Mother Teresa uses in the book is in no way degrading or dismissing of our position in this world. She invites us to grow in love and mercy through our actions towards others. It is always through of that actions speak louder than words and that would deem very more true here than ever before.

This book is also written in a way that can be put down and picked up at any time. This I think allows the reader to take time to soak up what wisdom is being laid down. This allows time to put into affect in the readers life what they are reading; which I think is one of the greatest things that could become of a book of this grandeur.  

I would most definitely recommend this book to anyone who needs a little inspiration and wants to learn from another person on this earth that is just a "pencil in the hands of God".
