Book Review: God's on the Phone

Posted by sevensorrows on 12:36 PM

God's on the Phone - Stories of Grade in Action

by Regis J. Flaherty



This book follows an easy pattern:
-short entertaining or heartfelt story
-points to ponder
-prayer
-discussion questions and action steps


As you can see, this pattern can be used for many things.
- read one chapter a day on your own (conveniently 30 chapters)
- read with a spouse
- use with a bible study or prayer group
- use with a youth group/confirmation class


This book is an easy read an has stories that everyone can relate to. Yes, there was even a punk rock/moshing story!


Great easy read, worth your time and money.
