Serve Strong by Terry Powell Review


Short Book Description:

Serve Strong helps volunteers as well as vocational Christian workers combat discouragement, persevere through weariness, and cultivate endurance for the long haul. Joy-sapping workloads, feelings of inadequacy, lack of fruitfulness, or battle fatigue from spiritual warfare often spurs God’s servants to quit or sabotages their passion. The purpose of this book is to infuse them with biblical perspectives that buoy "sagging spirits, boost motivation, and cultivate endurance.
Serve Strong isn't just for those currently discouraged, but can prevent the debilitating discouragement that short circuits ministry effectiveness.  It makes a great gift so the recipient will continue to serve strong in his or her ministry.
Genre: Christian Living/Bible Study

My Review:

This book was different then other religious books that I have read before. This book Was for those of us that know life is not easy, and try to do the best we can. This book is very enthusiastic and encouraging. I liked the "Dig Deeper" sections so that if I wanted to learn more about a chapter then I knew how.This is a good book for anyone that is facing any type of battle. I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review from First Wild Card book tours, however all opinions are my own.
