Book: Vibrant

Author: Carol McLeod

Genre: Christian Living, Women’s Interest

Release Date: November 3, 2020

Vibrant Have you ever met someone who possessed a quiet radiance so rich, so dynamic, that you ached for more, someone whose presence is so compelling you feel refreshed by a single conversation with them? If you know someone like this, you anticipate your times together. You realize their joy is contagious, their peace is deep, and their compassion is engaging.

Such people are “vibrant.” Regardless of their socioeconomic status, their education, their marital status, or their health, these people are determined to live joyfully, seeing each obstacle as an opportunity for growth. The vibrant individual’s persona is attached to their convictions rather than their circumstances.

Author Carol Burton McLeod believes everyone can choose to be Vibrant: Developing a Deep and Abiding Joy for All Seasons—and such a life begins by emulating Jesus. His life was filled with challenges and yet people were drawn to Him. Every character trait that we are called to embrace, every action of kindness or love, and each word of compassion or tenderness is a telling reflection of Christ within us. We are called to be a vibrant show-and-tell of what God is able to accomplish through one ordinary person.

Carol explores what it means to follow Jesus in a world filled with disappointment, rejection, and discouragement. And she provides gentle encouragement and suggestions from Scripture to help us do just that.

Vibrant" by Carol McLeod is a book that every Christian should read and put the steps she talked about into their life. This book is set up by different topics and each ends with a prayer that she asks the reader to pray. She says the most important thing to living a vibrant life is to read the Bible and focus on Him in our struggles. She also talks about worship and how if we worship in times of sorrow is a discipline that will guarantee your capacity to live a life of satisfying and magnificent fruit. She also discusses other difficult topics.

I read this book in one setting for this review, but I can guarantee I will be rereading this book, I know I say that about alot of the books I review, but this book is a sure rereading because I want to be a vibrant Christian that shows Christ to the hurting world.

This book is easy to read and to follow, if you like books that are life changing but find such books as difficult to understand and even harder to put into practice, I recommend read this book and start practicing them as you read the book,

I am so glad that I received a complimentary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit. These opinions are my own.
