Book Review - Nothing is Impossible with God - I'm Giving Some Away!

There are times in all of our lives when we feel weak, have questions about our faith and need to rest in God's power. A point in our life where we move from knowing God's Word tells us nothing is impossible for God to where we believe it because we've experienced it in our own life. This author - Rose Marie Miller, shares her story of how she moved from being a person who was trapped in moralism and legalism - "a religion of duty, rules and self-control through human willpower." -  to a person who was freed by the Gospel. This message of how the "Gospel can change anybody" is a message we all need to hear!

This book walks you through Rose Marie's life, struggles, challenges, losses and how she learned to live in God's grace. There is a lot of "topics" touched on; maybe a shorter book which focused on one or two at a time would have been a good idea, but there is a lot of solid information which will challenge, encourage and help those who read it.

New Growth Press says, "Nothing is Impossible with God also gives insight into the themes of living a lifestyle of forgiveness, hopeful discipleship, what it means to be content, and lessons in how to pray. Readers will also learn about four women of the Bible who had firsthand experience with the God of the Impossible."
