"The resurrection is not a doctrine to be pondered, but an invitation to experience the living Christ in your life......We want you to do more than gain knowledge of the ressurection; we want you to experience the ressurection in your daily walk with the risen Christ" -Henry & Melvin Blackaby
Does that quote not just grab you? I was very excited to be asked to read this book. Unfortunately, it only arrived the day before yesterday. Not enough time to read it all before the book tour, but just look at at some of the chapter titles: The Father's Eternal Purpose; Ressurection and the Uncommon life; Ressurectuin Peace; Ressurection Joy; Ressurection Hope; Never the Same Again; and many more. The author's guide you into experiencing the gospel of Christ in it's fullness. They offer the reader a deeper understanding of the glorious, joyous dimensions of the ressurection with the goal of revealing the living Lord at work in your daily life.

I would love to read this book. I've been thinking a lot about the resurrection lately...and not just because of Easter. I've been thinking that I don't think about it enough all year long!
Hey! Thanks for stopping by and I hope that the wrist is feeling better. I am always up for a good book. Put my name in the pot. I need to get my reading list together - maybe the next couple of days.
