The Bible In Ten Words by Deron Spoo

Deron Spoo says there are 10 words in the Bible that can sum up God's plan. His new book, The Bible in 10 Words, reveals those words.

 The Bible in 10 Words is divided in to chapters that mostly contain the 10 words that Spoo talks about along with an introduction and a conclusion. I can tell you the 10 words but you are going to want to read the book to find out why they are important: Light, Dust, Breath, Garden, River, Eat,
Alone, Naked, Afraid, and Sweat. Spoo shares why each word is important by beginning each chapter with a Bible verse and a quote about the word. He concludes each chapter with a prayer, questions to ask yourself or others in a group setting and more verses to think about relating to each word.

At first glance, The Bible in 10 Words may not sound like a very interesting book. However, Spoo is both  an interesting writer and a great communicator. He shares some fascinating stories about each word and really brings the Bible to life through this book. The stories and his thoughts seem to flow effortlessly through each reading. I think this would be an especially great book to give a new Christian but it is also interesting to those who have been Believers for a long time. It would make a great book for a small group to use together too.  It isn't a book that you will want to just read straight through but rather a book to use as a devotional or to read through slowly and reflectively.

I received this book from the publisher. All opinions in this review are my own. #sponsoredbyfaithwords
