Let's Do Lunch

Let's Do Lunch - Roger Troy Wilson

I have mixed feelings on this book. I can't tell you if it works or not, but the book was a good read. It was insightful and inspiring, with lots of great examples and ideas.

One piece I thought was missing and I missed it was a spiritual aspect. He did this all on his own (which is amazing!), but I think with a Christian publisher, he could have brought in a spiritual aspect to it!

I don't know that even after reading this book I will try it. To be honest, I've got an incredible craving for the things he tells you not to eat in this book, and it seems daunting and impossible. However, he's got story after story of people this worked for, but at this point for me I don't think this is the plan for me.

I loved that he included a VERY big and comprehensive grocery list - makes it seem like you CAN actually still eat some foods!! Also, he included a TON of recipes, which I think is very helpful for those starting the Let's Do Lunch program - you've got lots of choices!

It was a quick and good read - I read it in one sitting!

Enjoy - and share your story if you try it!

Cast of Characters

Cast of Characters - Max Lucado

I LOVED this book! Lucado has a unique style of connecting biblical characters stories to our own lives. In Cast of Characters, he goes through 22 characters in the Bible - some well-known, and some less stand-out characters! He then talks through their lives and how we - thousands of years later! - struggle the same ways, think the same ways, and connect with God the same ways. What a cool premise for a book!

An easy read - each chapter (each character) is relatively short. You can just read one (but be warned, you wont want to put it down after just one!).

I would recommend this book to anyone - not only is it eye-opening about your own life, but you get sucked in to learning more about characters in the Bible too. He intrigues you by telling you each of their stories, and you're left wanting to read more.
