Book Review - Max on Life


We have questions. Child-like inquiries. And deep, heavy ones.
In more than twenty-five years of writing and ministry, Max Lucado has been the receiving line for thousands of such questions. The questions come in letters, e-mails, even on Dunkin Donuts napkins. In Max on Life he offers thoughtful answers to more than 150 of the most pressing questions on topics ranging from hope to hurt, from home to the hereafter.
Max writes about the role of prayer, the purpose of pain, and the reason for our ultimate hope. He responds to the day-to-day questions—parenting quandaries, financial challenges, difficult relationships—as well as to the profound: Is God really listening?
Including topical and scriptural indexes and filled with classic Lucado encouragement and insight, Max on Life will quickly become a favorite resource for pastors and ministry leaders as well as new and mature believers.
Review:
In Max on Life, Max Lucado delivers Biblical answers to hard-hitting questions. These questions are not ones that he has come up with, but ones that real people have asked him.  Real, searching people with honest questions.  They can be very simple and also very profound.  Max answers all of them Biblical and most of his answers, if not all, include a Bible verse.  He goes through just about everything in life: hope, hurt, help, him/her, home, haves/have-nots, and the hereafter.  A lot of the questions are hard ones that have importance.  If you’ve got questions about life, Max on Life can be a valuable resource, a resource that will point you to the One who knows everything and His Word: God and the Bible.  Prayer and Scripture reading are the best places to find wisdom.   It’s a great book!

I was given a free digital copy of this book by BookSneeze in exchange for my review. The opinion is my own!
