Following Christ: The Parable of the Divers and More Good News by Stephen E. Robinson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Really good book. Highly recommend. This book really puts religion, faith and our adherence to them in perspective. It shows the incredible fact that both faith and works are dead without each other - they are the two sides of the one coin - and we need them both. But mostly it really strikes at the center of it all by strongly showing the evidence that what truly mattes is not the we focus on how good we're being, nor how much we resist temptations, nor how much we sin and "fall short", but rather how much we continue to push forward without jumping ship. In other words, the big big lesson to learn here is this: It's all about choosing to endure in faith during this life till the day we die - It matters not how easy or hard the road. So long as we don't give up - that is what matters. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. Some days, that's all we'll be able to do. But so long as we do it, we have the Lord's promise that we'll live with Him again.
