I like the content
Good for my biblical education. The book was recommended by a Pastor who visited the church. I read it and found it very informative and inspiring. These books are worth reading continuously. And more than just reading its content must be acted upon.

Awesome Beyond Mere Words
Format: Paperback
Unaware of its full content within, I found this book has revolutionized my inner self's awareness: of WHO I am in Christ, and Who's Inside Me and has been since accepting Christ! This book helped to 'show the way' how; to convert from academic "knowing" thinking to "Spirit-led living." This is a major transitional shift, but one God wants, the Spirit led me to, and what my prayers had been asking for all along without MY-understanding even realizing it! until I 'let go of MY-understanding and let Holy Spirit have the upper hand. It's really a "tuff job!" but one 'worth fighting for'; by letting go. With His 'Power' within, there's no other way but UP.
I strongly recommend this book to those seeking a closer/deeper connection with Jesus Christ and God's Holy Spirit.
The wording is so very easy to read, yet its depth very profound.

The Supernatural You
I was pleasantly surprised by 'The Supernatural You' by Brenda Kunneman. She exposes you to the power that every believer has inside of them, but is rarely teached in the average church. She talks about her growing up and how she learned about this supernatural power. Very practical tips on how to access your hidden power. I would recommend it to other Christians that want to go deeper in God.
Ironically - I hit "Buy This Book" by accident. Now I realize it wasn't an accident....
