Book Review: Don't Quit In The Dip

Don't Quit In The Dip

Author:  Shaun Nepstad

Publisher:  Worthy Books

Pages:  224

Shaun Nepstad is the founder and pastor of Fellowship Church in California.  Mr. Nepstad's book, Don't Quit In The Dip, is about the experience of trials and how these trials can be used to help those around us.  

Mr. Nepstad's message is encouraging.  He reminds us that God is always with us and He is always working in each situation and trials we are facing.  Mr. Nepstad tells of many Scriptural stories of individuals who faced challenges and how God walked and worked through that situation with that person.  

In this time, when this world has been thrown into uncertainty and we are all in a dip, the message of this book encourages us to continue forward, lean on God, and trust in Him.  

I would encourage you to pick up this book.  The message will uplift and encourage you.  

Happy Reading!

     Leadership By The Good Book is an inspirational read about leadership.  Mr. Steward and Mr. Mann write about the greatest and highest model of a leader:  Jesus.  The authors take you on the journey they started in creating their own company using Biblical principles as guidance.  Biblical teachings are related to several business situations that may arise within an organization.  Within these teachings are also the authors’ own examples of trials and lessons learned while creating the phenomenal business they have today.

 

     The authors are transparent in illustrating their hearts for the Lord, their obedience to His Word, and in caring and serving their customers and employees. This is a great read for any leader who is creating an organization and a guide to investing in people.

Book Review: Reinvent: Start Fresh and Love Life!

Reinvent:  Start Fresh and Love Life!

Author:  Beth Jones

Publisher:  Faith Words

Pages:  240

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.
