Limitless: Devotions for a Ridiculously Good Life, by Nick Vujicic

Who says you need arms and legs to swim?

If you don't know who Nick Vujicic is, you really must read one of his books.  This newest book, Limitless: Devotions for a Ridiculously Good Life, takes selections from his other two books, Unstoppable and Life Without Limits, couples them with a brief scripture and a one or two sentence point of reflection or challenge, and puts it all together into 50 short devotional readings.

Nick, who was born without arms and legs, has to be one of the most positive people ever.  When you try to imagine the hardships he has had to overcome, and reflect on the little things in life that you might complain about from time to time, you have to respect his tenacity and faith and question your own.  Nick doesn't say "Look what I have accomplished in spite of my disability," he points to God as his provider and strength.  He says he decided to put the word go before disabled to remind him that even though he is disabled Godisabled!  (Get it? God is abled. . . .)

The devotions lean toward self-image and motivation, making them most appropriate for younger Christians, but Nick has such a broad appeal that anyone can benefit from reading these.  Nick is a hero, a star, an inspiration.  You will be blessed and inspired.

Thanks to WaterBrook/Multnomah for the complimentary review copy!

Unstoppable, by Nick Vujicic

Long-time Reading Glutton readers may remember my review last year of Nick Vujicic's Life Without Limits.  This young man was born with no arms and legs, but has not let that slow him down.  He's an inspiration to all of us, no matter what abilities or disabilities we have.  He has a new book coming out soon from Waterbrook Multnomah, Unstoppable: The Incredible Power of Faith in Action.  I have not read it, but am happy to promote it (in exchange for a copy of it!).  Check in later for a review.

Below are a promotional video and excerpt.  Whether you have heard from Nick before or not, check this out.  I guarantee you'll be inspired.
