Hard Choices And Sacrificial Love
The Seven Day Resurrection by Chevron Ross is a powerful Christian contemporary novel that intrigued and consumed me from the start. There were times when, along with the character, I did not understand what was happening but suddenly my eyes were opened in a ‘wow!’ moment – and I understood – this is such a powerful read.
We all have regrets and wish we could have a ‘do-over’. There are things we wish we had said and things we wish we had not said. If you could have a ‘do-over’, what would you change?
This is a book about love – the love of a mother for her family. Sometimes we have to make hard choices for the sake of those we love. Others will not understand but for the sake of love we must choose.
We witness a sacrificial love. It is a love that is not self-serving. It is a love that thinks only of others as we break our own hearts for the sake of those we love.
The Seven Day Resurrection is a really powerful book that filled my heart and soul with love. The ending was so beautiful and has remained with me.
I will leave you with a powerful quote:
“The church was nurturing people instead of condemning them.” This is the church functioning as Jesus intended.
I received a free copy from the author. A favourable review was not required. All opinions are my own.
