A really good book about Lot

The not only talks about the story of Lot and his sins and mistakes but also makes the story interesting and relatable. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about Lot and what happened in Sodom and Gomorrah.

Now I understand the meaning of Lot's life

I now understand the meaning of "your lot in life". Not following God's path will lead you nowhere. I noticed the advantages given to Lot and how he ignored them. Great story with a great message.

Great Bible Character Series!

I am following along this series to refresh what I learned over many years ago in Sunday school. I liked how the author compared Lot's life to his own and comes to the conclusion that he, like Lot is nothing without God. So true for us all. Great read to anyone wanting to revisit the characters in the bible in an enjoyable way.

Thoughtful and interesting story.

Narration is very enjoyable to listen to and has great pacing. I really enjoyed this book on Lot because it dives deep into his journey. Each chapter focuses on a different part of his life where he was exposed to different challenges that shaped him. The bonus at the end on Abraham was also a nice surprise.

Learning about Lot!

I love how James has focused specifically on different Bible characters like LOT. I can't wait to hear who he writes about next! Always learning!

Well written and narrated

This book is interesting and relatable, you'll learn about Lot and what happened in Sodom. Also, nice surprise at the end :)

Relevant and Practical

I was in just from the first 30 seconds of the sample that I initially listened to on this book. This is a lovely book. I’m so thankful there are books out there like this. Very relatable and great to hear the author say he walked away for a little bit and ultimately is so thankful for the foundation he was given in Christ from a young age.

God is faithful and does not disappoint.

The story of Lot and his commitment to God and the love for his family is very inspirational and timely. It is so important to not want what the world has or idolizes, but what God has for us. There is direction for life in the Word and there is life when trusting Him with your life!

Super relevant and super appreciated!

The only reason I gave it a for is I wanted it to go longer. Definitely would recommend especially to my Bible study friends. Also look forward checking out to more books in the series.

Applicable for today

I recently started walking in the evenings and have been listening to music, but today I decided to listen to this book instead. I ended up listening to the whole thing in one evening. I really was impressed by the way the book started presenting personal application right away, not waiting until the end. I look forward to the next one.

Life Lessons From The Life of Lot

The lessons of Lot are not to be taken as just interesting or a "story". His life goes from bad to worse at one point. But it does end up being a gracious end. Some read the accounts of Lot and focus on his troubles. Many of us lose faith when troubles hit us. Very few suffer as this man does. But his end shows the Grace of God. God has the ability to turn our sorrows into joy, even if we do not see this in the storm. For those who seek Him, there is always hope. Listen closely to this book and you will start or grow in your trust and faith in the One who is the Sovereign of the whole world. Avoid Lot's troubles but seek his end. Great narration. Highly recommended.
