Lazarus Awakening

Lazarus Awakening by Joanna Weaver

Product Description:

You believe that God loves the world…but sometimes you wonder if He truly loves you. For many of us, moving the truth of God’s love from our heads to our hearts is a lifelong process. As we consider our inadequacies or grieve our shattered dreams, we find it difficult to believe that God cares for us personally. In this life-giving book, Joanna Weaver shows you how to embrace the truth that Jesus loves you apart from anything you accomplish, apart from anything you bring. Just as He called Lazarus forth to new life, Jesus wants to free you to live fully in the light of His love, unbound from the graveclothes of fear, regret, and self-condemnation. Love is calling your name. Combining unforgettable real-life illustrations with unexpected biblical insights, Joanna Weaver invites you to experience a spiritual resurrection that will forever change your understanding of what it means to be the one Jesus loves. Includes 10-week Bible study (adaptable for 8 weeks) for both individual reflection and group discussion.

My Thoughts:

Only recently in my adult life have I been curious or even cared about religion. I was always taught that if you sin, God will punish you and not love you for this or that, and that we all are going to perdition no matter what. This book sure changes your view on all that, and I certainly would rather be in the way of thinking that Joanna Weaver is than the opposite. It is a good book that makes you think, and it is easy reading.
