I
received a copy of DIRTY FAITH: BRINGING THE LOVE OF CHRIST TO THE LEAST OF
THESE by David Z. Nowell from Bethany House.
I love diving into religious books and being able to share them with my
family, in particular my mother and devout uncle. In this book of nonfiction, categorized as
Christian Living, David Nowell shared stories about faith in action as he
ministered to the “least of these” in society, and who are treasured by
God. I loved how it showed that many
Christians stay “safe” in their pews while others actually do something to help
the world. It was great to read about
those touching stories. We need to
follow the advancement of the Bible and actually help the misfortunate.
This
has inspired me to help others. Recently
I’ve been more involved in my community via writing programs to help authors
polish their craft. I hope to do more
with that. The greatest feeling was the
thanks that came from a 6th grade girl after one of my classes. I realize this doesn’t compare to the work
done by those mentioned in the book.
DIRTY
FAITH analyzes passages of scripture and David Nowell also takes a look at the
individual to scrutinize tendencies many people have. This is another book I highly recommend.
