Sacred Mundane by Kari Patterson
How to Find Freedom, Purpose, and Joy
I must admit the reason I wanted to sign up to review this book was the title. It captured my attention and intrigued me! After all, who doesn't need to find freedom? Purpose? and Joy? Or to make mundane moments sacred? After all, ordinary happens every moment of every day, so to make them sacred - well it sounded fabulous!
Sign me up was my first response and I wasn't disappointed. I found it helpful and very honest. Kari challenged me at the same time helping me with every page always pointing towards God. God is the center of this book and He should be at the center of our life in order to find the 3 things that Kari mentioned in the title.
I immediately looked at the words Sacred and Mundane before I went into the book. Sacred meaning devoted or dedicated to a deity or to some religious purpose and mundane meaning ordinary, common, unimaginative. On days I find myself in the ordinary I find I ask a lot of questions. Such as: Do you feel like you do the same thing every day? What is my purpose? Is it really you God? Why do I doubt you God? Do you ever ask these type of questions? Well, this book is for you too. Kari, shows us that God is with us in the ordinary and to never forget this fact. God works in the everyday ordinary situations as well as the mountain top experiences and He will transform us, if we allow it to happen. God finds us right where we are in the ordinary!
I give this book 5 stars and I was given a complimentary copy from the publisher for my independent and honest review.
I hope you order it today from your favorite book outlet or purchase it at the store of your choice. It is worth the time and it took Kari many years to write this book. She took her time to share her life stories and lessons that she learned in ordinary moments. It is a small book, but filled with deep thoughts.
Sweet blessings,
Debbie
