Waking the Dead: The Glory of a Heart Fully Alive

This book spoke to me. It was like the words were jumping off the page as I read. Everything made sense.
'Waking the Dead' will always hold a special place in my heart because it is the book that helped me find my feet again when I had been down and who-knows-where for a long time. Nothing made sense, I was reluctantly giving up my faith, desperate for something to cling on to. Then I found this book on a friend's bookshelf - my interest was piqued by the title. I read the intro and knew I had to read the book. I kept my friend's copy for nearly a year - I eventually bought my own! I highly recommend this book to anyone questioning their faith or just wanting to know more and how to go further.
John Eldredge offers actual things you can use - he doesn't just say 'ok, go be more prayerful' - he helps you out, gives you suggestions, makes you see your life as it is and what it could be. Excellent God-inspired book. :)
