Have you already accomplished reading your winter book list or looking to add to it? Here’s four books you cannot skim over.
1. Before Amen: The Power of a Simple Prayer by Max Lucado
It is a fast read, but you will undoubtedly take your time soaking in the fresh take on prayer. This is not a lecture on how you don’t pray enough, but instead, a perfect piece to realize why God gives us prayer and why He listens to us, as well as a pocket prayer to reignite the fire for “prayer wimps.”
2. Sensible Shoes: A Story about the Spiritual Journey by Sharon Garlough Brown
A fresh face to fiction, the profiles of four women and their walk with God inspires the reader. Although the lengthy book is fiction, it is also a book of great teachings in faith. Dig deeper in your spiritual journey with Brown’s brilliant work.
3. How I Changed My Mind about Women in Leadership: Compelling Stories from Prominent Evangelicals by Alan F. Johnson
Prepare yourself for a piece that will challenge your belief on the controversial topic of women in leadership. This is a piece that gives off a personal vibe, removing the common opinion of readings on this topic being intrusive and commanding.
4. Without Rival: Embrace Your Identity and Purpose in an Age of Confusion and Comparison Paperback by Lisa Bevere
Recently released, Without Rival is an incredibly uplifting piece sharing the Truth of God. The world says to conform to its social standard; God says to surrender to him, giving up worldly ways. Learn or refresh your unique identity in Christ.
“For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.” -Ephesians 1:15-17
