I LOVE John Bevere's writing. He has a way of explaining things in a way that makes me both feel closer to the Lord but also like the things I've done or am looking for help with (ie--calling!) are a priority. He also, somehow, leaves me laughing the majority of the time.

You keep writing them, I'll keep reading them!

Easy 5.0/5.0

In his latest book, You Are Called: Discover Your God-Given Talents to Fulfill Your Purpose, Pastor and author John Bevere helps readers understand that everyone has a divine purpose and calling and how to discern what that may be. He offers a biblical basis exploring one’s unique gifts, calling and purpose and how each of these work together to formulate their special, God-given calling. Each chapter ends with a few questions to help readers dig deeper. In a time when many people struggle to find their calling and purpose in their life, I found this book to be especially meaningful and insightful. It is one that I plan to go back and reference in the future. I really enjoyed reading many of John Bevere’s own personal stories and examples of God’s faithfulness and how he discovered his own purpose and giftedness.

Special thanks to NetGalley and Thomas Nelson Books for providing this eARC in exchange for my honest review.

Many Christians struggle with what they are called to do because of the emphasis put on certain positions, like pastors and teachers. The Bible makes it clear that everyone has a purpose, with no position being more important than another. John Bevere shows how everyone can trust that God has a purpose for them and provides help in finding that purpose. Using the Bible and stories from others. Bevere lets readers know how to trust God for guidance and the ability to do what He has called them to. This book is good for anyone that is looking for how they can serve God, or those that want to do more in their service.

An excellent read for any and all readers! Author comes at you with both barrels and knocks you out of your shoes! Great job fleshing out all the characters. I give this book FIVE stars! Definitely recommend!
