The Reluctant Journey: Fulfilling God’s Purpose for You by Dr. Richard Leslie Parrott
I have found this book
interesting, albeit I was skeptical at first. Guess it shows that you shouldn't
judge a book by its cover as they say.
There is a lot of reading to go through before you get to the meat of
the book, but once there, I found it reflective and inviting. I have read
several books on the same theme by more infamous authors and historians. Each
was good in their niche, the same as this one is. It shouldn't be looked at for
history, archaeology, etc., its theme is spiritual reflection. Why did people
take these journeys? How did they get there? What happened along they way? What
caused them to become the people of faith that they were? These are the things that you will find in
this book. It is also equipped with
thoughts at the end of the chapter and questions, so it could be used for
devotional purposes or small group study.
The only real criticism that
I have, is that the copy I have has very light printing. Combined with the
paper being darker than normal, while giving the book a neat appearance made it
difficult to read. I don't know if the e-book
is better or not, but I did find this a drawback.
Overall I give the book a
high rating and recommendation. You won't be disappointed to consider its
thoughts, or use it as a class study.
