Chasing Sunsets by Karen Kingsbury
5.0
One reader had this to say about Karen Kingsburys books, "the stories are fiction; but their impact is real"
I couldn't agree more even if I tried. Chasing sunsets is the second installment in the 'Angels walking trilogy' and unlike Angels walking (the first book) this one did not leave us with a happy ending, atleast not in the way we expected it to. But the Angels walking team was very much present and miracles were happening all around in the book. As usual, I cried, I dare you to read a Karen Kingsbury novel and not have your eyes sting not even once! Impossible!
What I loved most about the book was when one character gave their life to Christ and the salvation prayer was included, typed in black and white for all of eternity. Whoever will pick up this book, regardless of their religous background will be exposed to it. Sometimes we forget that not everyone is saved and living a life for Jesus. There are a lot of broken people and ita not enough for us to do nothing, its time for us to do something. (Cue Matthew Wests do something) In whatever sphere of influence you are in, be the light of the world. Be the vesse l that God can use for His glory.
Here is a lyric from the Matthew West song Do something:
"I woke up this morning
Saw a world full of trouble now, thought
How'd we ever get so far down, and
How's it ever gonna turn around
So I turned my eyes to Heaven
I thought, "God, why don't You do something?"
He said, "I did, yeah, I created you"
If not us, then who
If not me and you
It's not enough to do nothing
It's time for us to do something
