Book Reviews of The Magnificent Obsession: Embracing the God-Filled Life
Book Review: A Must-Have Obsession!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not sure what I set out looking for in my first read of The Magnificent Obsession - maybe just knowing that Anne Graham Lotz would give me solid, practical truth to encourage me on my day-to-day journey. What I found was a kindred spirit in Abraham! What a great role model to follow - he was an ordinary man; he was faced with real-life choices of where to place his priorities; he messed up from time to time, but kept moving forward; he was wronged by others but didn't let it get him off track; he was authentic; he lived out his pursuit of God one day at a time, choice by choice. This Old Testament "character" seemed SO contemporary by the time I reached the last chapter -- SO relevant in my life....today. I'm at midlife and it encouraged me to not waste the rest of my life pursuing anything more than the ultimate God has for me. It would be BEST if you could read and embrace this message when you're in your teens or 20's, but Anne Graham Lotz gave so many practical examples and applications, it revealed that Abraham's an example to follow no matter what your age. I appreciated Anne's transparency, but not ever to the degree that she detracted from the story. It's a great read - like a novel with twists and turns - she truly makes you love following the plot line of Abraham's life. Of Lotz's books, this one is the strongest and most life-impacting yet.
