Mark Batterson’s new book PRIMAL, is quite an inspiring read.
This book has enough one liners to set Twitter on fire for the next year! My favorite being:
We complicate Christianity.
I enjoyed his little touches of humor, and his clever stories were enough to keep me reading, but the real draw to this book for me were the simple examples and explanations of how we love God with our heart, soul, mind and strength. It’s the simplicity that Mark is teaching that helped me to understand things so much better, and made me feel so encouraged. We all have times when we feel like our walk is not really, well, cooking with gas, and this book came at just one of those times for me. It’s encouragement has meant the world to me. In the introduction Mark said,
And by the time you reach the last page, I hope you will have done more than rediscover Christianity in its most primal form. I hope you will have gone back to the primal faith you once had. Or more accurately, the primal faith that once had you.
And that is exactly what it has done!
