Do you feel like God is saying “no” to everything you want?
Do you want to see God’s “yes” in your life?
The Gospel of “Yes”
by Mike Glenn is the book that can help you see God’s “yes” in your life.
When I first saw the title of this book, I thought that it
was probably another book about prosperity and how if we just have enough faith
our lives will be “perfect.” I am happy to say that I was wrong. Pastor Glenn
does a wonderful job of showing us how God wants to say “yes” to us and how He
already does, but Pastor Glenn also is clear to say that we are still going to
go through rough times and our lives will never be perfect. Using Biblical
examples, Mike Glenn shows us that God’s favorite word is “yes” and how even
the things that appear to be “no” can be a “yes” when we allow Christ to work
in our lives. He describes how the work of the cross and the resurrection are God’s
“yes” to us. He shows how through our saying “yes” to Christ we can become the
unique individual that God has designed us to be. We can live our destiny when
we recognize that “Our destiny flows out of Christ’s destiny” and our unique
identities in Christ. Pastor Glenn calls us to be “yes” to someone else by
seeking to understand how we can serve others. Pastor Glenn is forthright and
clear that Jesus Christ is the only way to knowing and experiencing God’s “yes”
in our lives. Once I started reading this book, I had a hard time putting it
down and my copy is full of highlighting and notes. I won’t say that this book will change your
life, but it might just change the way you see your life and your relationship
with Christ.
