 Seizing Your Divine Moment : Dare to Live a Life of Adventure review:
5 stars (Discerning God's will can't be done sitting still) - McManus does an excellent job in this book defining what 'God's will' means. So often being in God's will is taught as a place of comfort and security when in truth (biblical truth) it's far from it. Being in God's will is being out of our own will (initially) and we are uncomfortable with the thought of not controlling, not predicting the outcome of our own future. McManus goes on to say that being in God's will is a 'dangerous place to be'.
If you wonder what God's will for your life is or know someone struggling with that question this will serve as an excellent read! Consider this book along with John Ortberg's 'If You Want to Walk on Water You Gotta Get Out of the Boat'. I can't wait to read more of Mcmanus's work!
5 stars (rob) - To the reader who wrote this:
'...anybody could be so gullible as to accept this gibberish! amazing...and to think ERWIN (who should find some time and do a little research first) is actually making money off you poor souls! oh, the pity. I give it a one, but only because it has print in it.'
I would say....what is the fruit of your life in the kingdom? Erwin lives what he preaches, and lives are changed because of it. This book totally changed my focus from sitting back, waiting on God to 'find me' to moving out and seeking where God is already at work, and joining in.
4 stars (if you need a pep talk...) - This book was the right thing at the right time for me. As I was deciding to leave insitutional ministry and launch out and plant a church, I picked up Seizing Your Divine Moment. During one of the scariest times of my life, Erwin McManus took scripture and applied it in such a way that I was not only encouraged, but I was energized.
I highly recommend this book to those who are thinking about their lives and wondering 'What's next?'...and who might even be a little afraid of the answer.
