CROSSING THE WATERS by LESLIE LEYLAND FIELDS

I have always wanted to visit Alaska. I have heard it is beautiful there but it can also be extremely cold. Some of the living conditions are uncomfortable and the people work dangerous jobs. As I began to read the book, the author took me on an adventure that I will never forget.

I loved how the author shared her journey as a fisher woman and intricately told of the disciples. The vivid descriptions and  connections to the Bible was breathtaking . It  really made me dig deep into my understanding of commercial fishing and how hazardous it can be. Along the way she weaves truths and understanding on how much Jesus depended on his disciples. We are His disciples and He has called each of us to share His word. I felt like I was in the boat listening to Jesus talk as the waves crashed over us.

Grab this book and be taken to the boat where Jesus  was with His disciples. Listen as the author recounts the story and shares her own journey as she travels with her family , much like the disciples did with Jesus. It is very powerful and eye opening.

"Above all, love each other deeply , because love covers over a multitude of sin."

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Tyndale Blogger Program. The review is my own opinion and I was not compensated for it.
