Book Review: MIGHTY

MIGHTY: Vision for the supernatural normal Christian life by Carolyn Wing Greenlee is a convincing testimony to God’s power. The word “supernatural” in the subtitle may evoke magic or paranormal to some, but in this sense the word relates to the power of God in our every day lives, and the blessings that are ours when we believe in God’s love for us. The narrative is warm and personable, as though sitting with a friend over a cup of tea.

Greenlee shares first-hand knowledge of God’s supernatural power in normal, ordinary human lives. She provides anecdotes about her own experiences as well as those whose lives have demonstrated the strength of God’s unlimited capacity. She discusses the value and effectiveness of prayer, individually or the even more powerful group prayer.

Throughout this book the author demonstrates how individuals can gain insight in working out tough situations. She talks about God’s grace and the freedom of forgiveness. She discusses the value of studying the Bible, and the insights to be gained from the scriptures. In her book’s twenty-two chapters, the author covers the many aspects of human life and how it can be touched by God’s sanctifying grace.

Carolyn Wing Greenlee has walked with Jesus for more than forty years. She personally has faced many challenges, including blindness. A few years ago I read and reviewed her inspiring memoir, Steady Hedy: A Journey through Blindness & Guide Dog School. Greenlee has written close to fifty books. She is also an accomplished Christian songwriter, singer and playwriter, using her talents as a witness to God. In MIGHTY she shares her faith so that others may understand the joy of “walking with the Creator of the Universe.”
