Review of "Seven-Mile Miracle" by Steven Furtick

I thought it was unusual, but it took me awhile to get through this one. Normally, I race through the books of this author (I have read several in the past), but this one was different. However, when I finished I was truly grateful I stuck it out.

Focusing on the seven final phrases of Jesus before he died, Pastor Steven parallels the phrases to the phases of the journey of those who follow Christ. He writes in a very conversational style, including personal stories, the Scripture in question, and practical applications. There are also some thought provoking questions at the end of each "mile". Finally, you can reference the 40 day reading guide relating to Jesus' death and resurrection.

This book could easily be used as a devotional; each chapter is not overlong and have ample life application woven through them. The illustrative stories match the topic well, and everything is plainly spoken. You are motivated to find a deeper truth and I did ultimately get a lot out of it.

I am happy to recommend this book.

I was provided a copy of this book by Blogging for Books in exchange for my honest review.
