Synopsis

If you or someone close to you is devoted to their church but still struggles to find meaning and passion in their faith; who loves their family, works hard, contributes to their community, but still feels life is somehow incomplete and hollow at the core; who is restless in spirit, with a nagging sense that there must be something more . . . there is The Magnificent Obsession.Gifted Bible teacher Anne Graham Lotz, daughter of evangelist Billy Graham, has known these struggles herself. As she studied Scripture, looking for a way out of the emptiness, she found her answer in the amazing story of Abraham, a very ordinary man who became extraordinary for one pivotal reason: he pursued God in a life of obedient faith, not knowing where that decision would take him. Anne followed Abraham's lead and began a lifelong pursuit of knowing God, as he truly is, in an intensely personal relationship.Through personal anecdotes, unforgettable stories, and God-inspired insights, she invites you to draw closer to God, who is as committed to you as he was to Abraham, and longs to call you "friend."

Wonderful. Anne has her father's gift of expressing deep spiritual truths in language anyone can not only understand, but enjoy reading. She is so vulnerable and transparent - she makes no claims for herself, but presents the Gospel simply, forcefully and honestly. Highly recommend, wherever you are......more

Never has my soul been touched the way that Anne Graham Lotz does. I attended her “Just Give Me Jesus” conference in San Diego, CA back in early 2000. As I walked to my seat with friends the lights were low and a spotlight was on the podium that was in purple and a wood cross, off to the side a man......more

SO MUCH in this book! So very much that can speak into, apply, and encourage us in our everyday. Definitely plan to reread at some point. But for now going to unpack the story of Hagar and Ishmael in Lotz’ book Wounded By God’s People.......more

Goodreads review by Bekah on January 24, 2020

I liked this book. It's worth a read if you've read Genesis and want to give more thought to the story of Abraham. The thoughts on Abraham were interesting, but I appreciated and enjoyed Anne's personal stories even more. (Like can you imagine being the daughter of Billy Graham? Coming from an ultra......more
