Customer Reviews

Best book next to the Bible

I read this book and thoroughly enjoyed it. I gave a copy to my father who liked it so much that he commented "Next to the Bible, it is the best book I have ever read!" Of course some narrow-minded people consider the Bible too narrow.

Short Stories You've Heard Over and Over

The book offers excellent encouragement in a short story format. To me it reads like a daily devotional. It failed to hold my attention however and doesn't offer any depth to daily living. But it is a great work for offering small doses of encouragement to Christians.

I confess-I loved this book

This is such a joyfully written book. I think it is appropriate for "new" Christians as well as "old" Christians. Zig, as always, is right on target with his observations and insight. I highly recommend it.

A joyful celebration of faith, filled with uplifting advice.

I highly recommend this book for all Christians, but especially for new Christians. It is a joyous proclamation of faith, filled with amusing and uplifting anecdotes. Mr. Ziglar is famous for his motivational speeches and is highly sought after by corporate America to inspire and teach. He writes as well as he speaks and anyone who reads this book will greatly benefit from his shared experiences in Christian living. In today's world a book that focuses on the positive aspects of Christianity is welcome and this book is tops in that category. I have shared this book with many of my friends and if you are looking for a good book to give to a young person, graduate, new Christian, or anyone else, I highly recommend "Confessions of a Happy Christian." The doctrine is sound, the advice is excellent and the book is focused on the love and joy of living the Christian life.
