If you’re looking for a book about trusting God, RISK: ARE YOU WILLING TO TRUST GOD WITH EVERYTHING? is a great choice. Author Kenny Luck jumps into the topic with both feet and almost pummels readers with the thought there’s no other way to serve God. Specifically speaking to men who are Christians, Luck opens the door for all readers to understand that, at bottom, trust is faith in action. He hinges each chapter on the surety that there is little difference between trusting God and risking everything to follow him. Real trust requires believers to remain loyal, stay obedient, pursue solutions, identify enemies, establish vision, fight the status quo, and survive turbulence. Risk takers are more likely to stay the course and achieve success if they know what to expect. Each chapter prepares readers to steel their minds to obstacles behind every door. The author analyzes the pros and cons of common difficulties. He inspires readers with stories of conquerors, those who exemplify techniques for success. Among others, he tells the experiences of Chuck Yeager, who broke the sound barrier; George S. Patton, a full-throttle warrior, and Mohammad Al-Rehaief, a lawyer who saved the life of an American woman captured in Iraq. The author also discloses details of his own trials – both missteps and successes. As a CEO leaving a company with 265 workers and starting Everyman Ministries with his severance pay, Luck faced many. He learned the hard way that men who jump off spiritual ledges need a solid understanding of who God is and of their own identity. He had to refer to the dilemmas of Biblical characters for Jesus’ answers, guidance, and encouragement. Readers can rely on these same teachings. Luck’s purpose is to persuade readers to stride through the doorway, live life abundantly, and enjoy the adventures of risking all. He wants readers to quit just surviving, and move forward to change the culture, outlook, and eternal destination of co-workers, acquaintances, family or friends. The book ends with suggestions to help readers overcome fear, develop an intuition about right decisions, and pray. Read Luck’s book, evaluate his challenge, and see if you can use his sample prayer. You might change from being a person who won’t touch the doorknob to one who confidently swings a door open, and asks, “What next, Lord?” Publisher: WaterBrook Press Buy it now from our affiliate Bookstore CrossPurposesBooks.com |
