Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben.This was a good book and a real challenge that not all of the Christian life is "mountain top experiences." Sometimes, God simply wants men to be wiling to following Him no matter where He takes them. However, God must first develop a man before He can use Him. Thus an ordinary man is only such in man's eyes. When God is reading that man becomes an extraordinary man.
Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben.I could imagine some people genuinely enjoying this book, but it is not really in my genre. It seems to be memoir mixed with advice for ethical living for men. It is written for that specific audience, and I am guessing it would be enjoyed by that audience. I suppose it just was not entirely my cup of tea.

The author tells famous stories about some of the most known biblical characters and also some other personal stories he collected during the years.
He also makes us think about our ordinary life and how God uses us in His plan. Being average is not boring. It can be as exciting as being a celebrity. It all depends on the perspective. But you have to be not just another average, but the best average you can be, and God will work through you, touching the lives of those surronding you in a powerful way that will make you feel very special for God. Live your life with strong moral principles and transmit those principles to others and you may be changing the life of many around you.
Very powerful book, that I recommend to be in the permanent library of any serious Christian that needs to be reminded on the God's extraordinary calls to ordinary men!
This book was written by Troy Meeder and was published in April 2011 by WaterBrook Multnomah Books and they were kind enough to provide me a copy for reviewing through their Blogging for Books Program. Thanks, Mr. Troy Meeder, for such an inspirational book!
