Expecting to See Jesus: A Wake-Up Call for God's People by Anne Graham Lotz
4.0
I truly appreciate Lotz's heart for Jesus, and for leading others toward Him. Though I haven't read as many of her materials as I would like, I'm always awed and inspired by how she's truly living a life for Him - expecting to see Him in her lifetime. Will Jesus really return in her lifetime? That remains to be seen, but how wonderful that would be! And she does present a very compelling case as to why it could happen.
As for this book, it's a very timely message for today's world, and I enjoyed it. There were quite a few instances of unique formatting inside (not erroneous just experimental) that for some reason made it harder for me to focus on what she was actually saying, and I did feel that there were a few times I wished a point would have been expanded on or really driven home.
But overall, I'm very grateful for all the reminders, challenges, and piercing insights she offered in this book. I especially like her thorough checklist to help readers identify the hidden, driving sins in their lives, and the help inside for developing regular and powerful prayer lives/Bible studies. She talks about her deep, passionate love for Jesus, and both her own love and her desire to help others grow in that love for Him really show. I pray to develop such faith and love for Him.
I recommend this book for anyone seeking a reminder of why we're on this earth and what - and, more importantly, Who - awaits us afterward!
