God's Story IS our story- Our Hearts agree

If you could sum up God's Story, Your Story in three words, what would they be?

Powerful! Inspiring! Heartfelt!!

What was one of the most memorable moments of God's Story, Your Story?

The realization that God's Life and ours are entertwined for eternity. The way it is worded leaves no doubt of God's love for all mankind. It convicts and confirms our love for God as well. Very good story. Highly inspirational!

What about Mark Bramhall’s performance did you like?

He speaks with authority and gives the words a life of their own. His voice projection is supurb and keeps the story flowing and kept me enthralled in the story. I ended up listening to the whole thing in one setting when I was supposed to only listen for 45 min at a time :O)

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The part that spoke of finding the "right voices" to listen to. The analogy spoke of Jesus's question to the Apostles "Who do you say I am?" and the answers given and what happens to us as we learn to listen, and when we don't. Very good book for reflection.

Any additional comments?

I have been listening to Max Lucado's books for a little while now and I must say that this one stands strong and has a wonderful message to share and Mark Bramhall gives a stellar performance.

Many re-reads are in order...

What made the experience of listening to God's Story, Your Story the most enjoyable?

I believe the truth spoke in this book is the greatest realization that any of us can have in this existence. Delivered with style and obvious belief the points made will hold your attention and fill your heart with joy.

I fear that there is so much information in this book that I must now re-read it with the focus of a reference book. Too bad there is no space for annotations!

God, that was an easy one.

Don't see it, LIVE IT!

Yes I would listen to this again. I catch more nuggets each time I listen to this audible. Fact is, at each sitting of this book there is a message supplemented to the word of God.

What did you like best about this story?

The book is read well and the simplicity of it make's it a great read to share with a friend or family member. In it are stories backed up with scriptures that make the word of God become real in the everyday occurrences of life.

Which scene was your favorite?

Definitely my favorite is; "Molly Marks" it holds a very special place in my heart. When the doors are closed and we wonder why, know that God has a plan. Molly, the pet dog is a great illustration.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The whole book is great. One moment, no. It is tied so well together. It is the interwoven story of God and how it is our story. As a whole it is a moving story of the ever changing lives we live with an everlasting God who is consistent in our lives when we take the time to see, hear and understand His character spoken in His Word.

I suggest listening with a family member or friend and discuss the stories and scriptures shared from each.
