Broken Roads:  Returning to my Amish Father by Ira Wagler is a journey with the author into his life.  This book follows Mr. Wagler’s first memoir, Growing Up Amish:  A Memoir.  In Broken Roads, Mr. Wagler takes us further into his life journey, from his joys and through his lows.  Throughout the journey, Mr. Wagler’s voice is honest and raw.  Mr. Wagler’s gives so much of himself in this book.  Mr. Wagler’s road has not been an easy one, he shows the reader that the road of life is bumpy, and there will be a mix of experiences along the way.  Mr. Wagler’s journey will make a positive impact on you, his voice is unique, real, insightful, and he is an example of how persevering in faith can lead you to a new level of understanding of the road God has set you upon. 

I recommend that you read this book.  This book is sincere and may help you on your own journey ahead.

Happy Reading!

Book Review: Reinvent: Start Fresh and Love Life!

Reinvent:  Start Fresh and Love Life!

Reinvent:  start fresh and love life! By Beth Jones is about reaching and embracing your God-given purpose and living the life God intended for you to live.  Beth talks about how we can reinvent ourselves to fulfill our calling in Jesus Christ.  Beth talks about how this can be done biblically by asking ourselves four questions:  What do you want?  What do you have?  What will you do?  And Why will you do it?

Beth takes you through each question in detail to help you answer the question.  At the end of each chapter Beth asks questions that help the reader develop the answers to the four main questions step-by-step.  Beth features Scripture that explain that Christ ‘sees our bigger picture.’  Each Scripture adds depth to the search for God-given purpose and meaning. 

As I read this book, I did a lot of self-reflection.  The message that Beth conveys will also cause you to self-reflect and understand that God’s aim for our life is to live with purpose, and to be joyful within that purpose.  God has a vision for each of us and in our ever-changing lives, we will be reinvented because God always urges us to grow and He is the author of our bigger pictures. 

This book will change the way you think about purpose – especially your God-bestowed purpose.  I also believe this book will also open your eyes to how much God cares about you, your purpose, and wants you to grow and be joyful while you serve Him. 

Happy Reading!
