Synopsis

Today many of us are figuratively drinking from broken cisterns that hold no water. Rather than finding satisfaction in God, the Fountain of living waters, we seek to satisfy ourselves with the broken cisterns of this world, and we remain discontented.

In Broken Cisterns, Sarah Ivill exposes these broken cisterns—addictions to things like social media, physical appearance, shopping, sex, and others. She helps us understand why we are drawn to these things and how dangerous it is to seek contentment in them. Using Scripture, she also gently and practically leads us to the Fountain of living waters, who will transform our hearts and eternally satisfy our thirst.

Goodreads review by Anoverall on December 04, 2023

I agreed with a lot of the statements in this book, but for me the tone felt a little too Sunday-schoolish to really be enjoyable. A few times I lost track of her organizational method, and other times I felt the author was preaching to the choir or repeating herself. I think it would be a good boo......more

Goodreads review by Bess on November 04, 2023

This book was a disappointment. Broken cisterns are just that. A broken cistern. I normally like this author but I think in this book she is trying to pull something out of nothing.......more
