Max Lucado Rocks!

[aria384gp:)]

Does anyone else love his books as much as I do?

I just finished He Chose The Nails, and let me tell you this Preacher is so gifted, he truly has a gift from God, and Six Hours, One Friday, Unforgettable. The way he writes everything in ways you can understand is such a blessing.

God bless you, Mr. Lucado, you rock!

I haven't read those books, but I've read "A Love Worth Giving", and it was awesome. It totally changed how I understand the concept of loving others, not to mention myself. I'm definitely interested in reading more of his books. He has a real gift for writing.

His children's books are wonderful, as well. My kids have several and they touch me every time I read them.

Love, Heather

Oh, I didn't even know that he had children's books. That's pretty cool. I'll have to take a peek and see what I can find for my little girl.....

He writes childrens' books? That's awesome. I definitely have to check that book out, Jenna. Isn't it amazing how they cause you to look at things in a whole nother perspective?

That's so true. I'm just glad to have such inspiring and edifying books to read. So many times I am uncertain of what I pick up, even at the Christian bookstore.

I've been a fan of Lucado's for a long time. I think I've read every book, but my favorite is still "No Wonder They Call Him Savior" I read it again every year!

The children's books that we have are :

Just In Case You Ever Wonder - It's a beautiful way to explain not only how much a parent can love their child, but also how much our heavenly Father loves us and how much He wants us all to live eternally with him.

Alabaster's Song - A wonderful Christmas story told by a Christmas Tree Angel named Alabaster about what it was really like to be present at the birth of Jesus.

Jacob's Gift - Another Christmas story about the gift that a young carpenter named Jacob is able to give to Baby Jesus.

The Crippled Lamb - This one is probably my favorite. Joshua, the lamb, was different, and he often felt left out. But the book shows that despite his disability, God had a special plan for him. Because he was left behind the rest of the flock, he witnessed the birth of Jesus and was able to give Him the one thing He needed most.

Makes me tear up just thinking about how sweet these stories are.

There are probably 5 or 6 other Max Lucado children's books...maybe more. Definitely check into them.

Love, Heather

His best children's book is You are Special. It brings tears to my eyes when I read it, and I don't even have any kids. My summary of it wouldn't bring it justice, so here's a link. http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0891079319/ref=sib_dp_pt/002-9193650-4364817#reader-page

But his adult books are great too. I own a lot of them. If you haven't read Travelling Light, it's wonderful! He Still Moves Stones is also excellent. And I second Jenna's review of A Love Worth Giving....it's great too!
