Excellent. I like how it wasn't a list of do's and don't's, but rather about connecting with God and letting him be in charge of everything.
Exactly what I need in my life right now.
Highly recommended!

This book, while there were some good quotes - it felt really over spiritualized in places, and awkward in others! While I do WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree that God writes out love stories, looking to God as our ultimate source of intimacy felt weird to me. But, there were some quotes that I’ll take with me, and scriptures I’ll hold onto!

As Christians, we often settle down in comfortable mediocrity. We stay in the safe zone and don’t try to push past what is necessary. Yet our God is a God of impossibilities. He is our guide into the endless frontier of the Christian adventure. Will we follow? Or have we forgotten that we are to be pilgrims?
When God Writes Your Life Story is one of the handful of books that have had a huge impact on my life. I love it because it got me excited about my faith. The authors encourage the reader to realize just how big God is. Living in obedience to Him can be absolutely breathtaking. When insist on holding the pen and sitting on the throne of our lives, we won’t be happy. But when we surrender the pen to God and let Him write the story, amazing things are right around the corner. Of course, it won’t always be easy. We are warned that in this world we will have tribulation, but God has promised that he has overcome the world.
The God of the Universe wants to write your life story. And when He does, you mustn’t expect a mediocre tale.

Not your typical relationship book. Really enjoyed this. Challenged me in my walk with the Lord, and my friendships with the opp. gender.

This is book is a sequel of sorts to Eric and Leslie Ludy’s popular book, When God Writes your Love Story, which talks about surrendering your ideas and pursuits of romance to God and trusting him to satisfy your dreams and desires.
This book is centered around that same idea, but instead of only talking about one aspect of your life, it centers around your whole life. It struggles with the age old questions, “Who am I?” and “What am I here for?” Honestly at times I had to put this book down and pray over some of the concepts because there are hard, hard truths written in these pages.
Believing in Jesus costs us nothing, but truly following him costs us everything from removing distractions, shaking off our “settler” mentality, disciplining our bodies, minds and souls and developing Godly habits. It’s a book I will definitely keep on my shelf and re-read because the truths and challenges in it are timeless and so important to remind yourself of.

I got this book on my 12th birthday. I did not appreciate all the sexist rubbish Eric Ludy tried to shoehorn in—according to him, women shouldn’t make the first move in a relationship because it “robs” men of their “masculine strength” and will ultimately “ruin” their relationship. Just how fragile is the male ego? Any man who feels threatened by a woman who is straightforward about her feelings deserves to be alone. Natural selection and all that.

Another cheesy book title which I frowned upon when I hear about it - yet this book resonates with me and will not stop talking about it for a long time. This book has brought a lot of truths that changed me, my personal perspectives, only in just few days. Giving this five star because I just love the book from cover to cover.
