This week’s book review is on Bill Hybel’s “Holy Discontent: Fueling the Personal Fire That Ignites Personal Vision”. This book, like many others in the genre, is a call to action. It is a reminder that God intends for us to be acting on His behalf in the world to make it closer to what He intended it to be. Hybels has summarized the stories of a few people that he has met over the years into his view of what pushes people past the boundary of recognizing the brokenness and ACTING ON that recognition to resolve the problem. Thus the title “Holy Discontent”.
Hybels states that “a bad day lived from the energy of your holy discontent is far better that the best day lived anywhere else.” We are called through Christ to engage our broken world, and with God’s help, take action. This book can help you do that or if you’re already doing it, this book will provide a great source of encouragement to keep doing it. Enjoy. The book is available in the Lbrary under classification 248.4 – Christian Experience, Practice & Life.
