I normally don’t put 5 stars on book reviews because it takes a lot to get me to believe a book is deserving of all 5 of those stars, but boy was this book deserving and more.
I think this book brings up a lot of great points and really calls to attention how much society has strayed from what we were made for. We were made for Him, to follow in His steps, and to heed His word. And yet, society just does what’s easy and convenient nowadays. We fall away from Him, because following Him isn’t easy. It was never meant to be easy, life is suffering, but suffering brings about beauty. We need to be able to see that.
I definitely think every Christian should read this book and reflect on how they see their faith. It opened my eyes to things I was doing wrong, and ways that I can grow closer to Christ.
What’s important is that we see our mistakes and our sins and move on from them. We try again, and we climb to get closer to God.
