Book Review And Giveaway: 360 Life



WHAT IF YOU HAD A SECOND CHANCE TO CHART YOUR LIFE?

What if you only had a few days to live?
Would you love?
Would you laugh?
Would you give?
Would you live differently than you do right now?

--Billy Joe Daugherty


If possible, would you do a makeover on parts of your life? Most of us would gladly say “Yes!” to a fresh start, and that’s exactly what God offers.

So many people live empty and frustrating lives, which is tragic because God desires a full, productive, and satisfying life for His children. 360° Life explores how ordinary people, regardless of their challenges, can experience life-altering change through simple faith. Billy Joe Daugherty weaves material from the Bible, his own experiences, and riveting interviews with contemporary Christians to reveal how not just to survive struggles, but to rise above them.

That’s the fulfilling result of a 360-degree life.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I started to read this book. I've read my share of Christian "self help" books and didn't think this book would teach me anything new.

I was so wrong.

Filled with encouraging words, stories and Scripture verses, this book opened my heart and mind to new ways of thinking and caused the word of God to fall fresh right into my heart.

Whether you are a life long Christian, new in the faith or simply looking for answers, Pastor Daugherty speaks to us all.

There was something in every single chapter that touched me, spoke to me, or brought me to tears with the realization of Truth in a new way.

Pastor Daugherty talks about overcoming fear and anxiety, the power of our words, hearing God's voice and rising above our circumstances. And he does it without speaking over the reader's head. He just reveals the Truth in a way that is so easy to understand, accept and believe.

I am so excited to be able to give away a copy of this incredible book. All you have to do is leave me a comment about anything at all and you'll be entered to win.

Easy, yes?

Want a second chance to win?

Tweet about this giveaway, then come on back and leave a separate comment letting me know you did it.

Yep! That's it!

This giveaway will run until midnight on Wednesday May 5th. I'll choose a winner using Random.org to be announced on Thursday.
