In his latest book, Grace-more
than we deserve, greater than we imagine Max Lucado teaches of the deep
quality of unmerited love. In twelve chapters, he gives special new meaning to
the presence of God in our lives.
This book saturated with scripture and examples of grace in
our daily lives, Max brings freshness to Bible reading and study.
The book held my interest. It inspired me to show more grace
to others in my life. At the end of this book Max Lucado includes a study guide.
This feature is a plus for me. I intend to re-read this work and spend time
studying grace.
Max always holds my attention. (I have read several of his
works over the years.) He uses metaphors of modern life to allow the reader to
identify with the topic. This style of writing quickly draws the reader into
the ‘discussion’, making him or her feel at ease.
Max conveys Biblical truth in a way that the concept stays
with the reader. He includes scripture throughout this book. The study guide,
written by Kate Etue, follows a form for each in-depth chapter study, one
section of which is a scripture review. Each of these sections is saturated
with scripture readings and or questions to ponder.
I would highly recommend this book to believers wanting to
grow in their faith. There is a participant’s guide available for small group
use. The publisher has made this book available in DVD form for small group. It
comes in an unabridged audiobook, as well as e-book forms.
