About October’s Top Book!

#1 Bestseller on Amazon in Religious Leadership!

While leading a team on a week-long trek of the Himalayas, bestselling author and pastor David Platt was stunned by the human needs he encountered, an experience so dramatic that it “changed the trajectory of my life.” Meeting a man who’d lost his eye from a simple infection and seeing the faces of girls stolen from their families and trafficked in the cities, along with other unforgettable encounters, opened his eyes to the people behind the statistics and compelled him to wrestle with his assumptions about faith. In Something Needs to Change, Platt invites readers to come along on both the adventure of the trek, as well as the adventure of seeking answers to tough questions like, “Where is God in the middle of suffering?” “What makes my religion any better than someone else’s religion?” and “What do I believe about eternal suffering?” Platt has crafted an irresistible message about what it means to give your life for the gospel–to finally stop talking about faith and truly start living it.

“The Creator did the 𝑢𝑛𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑘𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒; He became part of His creation. For sinners like 𝑦𝑜𝑢." - 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠 ^ ^ ^ I really loved the heart and passion of this book.

New review from @rayleigh_ann ! You don’t want to miss this book from #DavidPlatt ! ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ #bookstagram #nonfiction #christianliving #encouragement #change #godispowerful #need #calling #octoberreview #october Despite the fact that this book is filled with adventure, puzzles, and mystery, I really found this book to make my head spin, shake my head and, flabbergasted, say, “what?!”. / The full review is available on LiteratureApproved.com, but we really only recommend this book if you like philosophical tales that make you dizzy! / ^ ^ ^ ^ #bookstagram #solvetheworld #partone #philosophy #books #review #fiction #adventure #october #octoberreviews #octoberreads #new #bookblogger “I think this book is really important, especially in order to better understand the Civil Rights movement.” -Valerie Cotnoir, Reviewer for Literature Approved. ^ ^ ^ ^ #thehelp #civilrights #1960s #historicalfiction #empoweredwomen #help #book #review #litapp #literatureapproved #october #octoberreviews “My favorite thing about this book was that it made me realize that the *large* majority of what I read is dominated by either American or British Caucasians....This book helped open my eyes to see the many stereotypes and assumptions we make about this people group...It gave me a new appreciation for their history, religion, and especially their food!” ~ What books have opened your eyes to new cultures?? Tell us your favorites and why you love them! ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ #ayeshaatlast #books #culture #Canadian #Muslim #bookstagram #reviews #reviewer #bookreview #october #octoberreviews Fans of Charles Dickens will enjoy this Oliver-Twist-type story that is both gripping and inspiring. We gave it 5 out of 5 stars, but did warn against putting it into the hands of Foster/Adopted children. To know why, read the full review!
