After reading this book, I can only give it 3 stars because I had a hard time finishing it. The book is not very long, but the author went in to varied detail about the life of Elijah. I’m not a person who enjoys every minute detail so I think that’s where this book lost it for me. The book describes the life of Elijah in chronological order based on all of the passages in the Bible pertaining to Elijah’s life. It seemed that the author did immense research concerning the culture of that time period and was well versed in Biblical knowledge. If you’re a Elijah fan, as my husband is, this is the book for you. I enjoyed the book overall, but the overwhelming details made it hard to get through to the end.

This book is a fantastic read for anyone interested in the supernatural. Chad Norris is a baptist preacher who comes to the table admitting he has been “skeptical” of signs and wonders. As he describes his testimony and journey into the world of the Kingdom, the reader gets the impact of just how far he has walked with the Father. Chad only describes God as loving, although he didn’t always feel that way about Him. He describes his approach and methods as gentle, and I appreciate that as a long time Christian. A fascinating read, if you enjoy auto biographies.

This book was rich in stories and real life examples of the work Heidi and Rolland Baker do in Mozambique, Africa. I have heard of these two missionaries in the past, and I was genuinely interested to read about their work in the “bush, bush.” There is no detail left unturned between these pages, which is fulfilling. I found myself asking questions about normal day to day activity, and then one by one those questions were answered throughout the book. You will feel like you really get to be a fly on the wall in the Baker’s lives.
As the founders of Iris ministries, the Bakers oversee many bases in the surrounding spaces of Mozambique and beyond. They give credit to all of the people who are on their teams and are very humble and generous. If you’ve ever wanted to become a missionary to the bush, bush, read this book!

This book has drama, suspense and romance intertwined through the storyline. The main characters are a tight knit family of young adults who have grown up supporting each other in the Alaskan mountains. After their brother, Reef, gets charged with murder, they seek to prove his innocence. As they hunt down clues to the victim’s past, the are unknowingly being tracked by the killer himself. A suspenseful read!
I enjoyed the Christian themes throughout the book, but one critique would be the over use of romance and physical attraction. The value of abstinence before marriage was upheld throughout the book, but I feel that the author could have drastically lowered the amount of sexual attraction between the two main characters. Otherwise, the book leaves me wanting to read the next in the sequel, if the author is so inclined to continue the series.

I really enjoyed this book! It is essentially a biography about Tracy, written and published by the authors. Tracy’s life is far from status quo as a single woman in love with Jesus. She follows him to the scariest places on Earth and her courage is energizing. She has overcome a lot of obstacles in her early childhood. The reader will enjoy this biography as a testimony of God’s goodness.
