Book Review ~ Searching For Spring: How God Makes All Things Beautiful In Time by Christine Hoover

Searching For Spring: How God Makes All Things Beautiful In Time by Christine Hoover is not a book for self-improvement, and it contains no discussion question or suggested activities for personal reflection. What it is, however, has the potential to touch you on a deeper level than the simple cover dares to suggest.

Searching For Spring is full of little snippets of Christine's personal journey to finding God's beauty in life's everyday happenings. From the beauty of watching the wildlife in her own backyard to discovering the hidden depths of God's beauty in witnessing close friends struggle with adulterous behaviors, Christine invites us to join her and see God's glories through the lens of her personal experiences. With plenty of Biblical excerpts and references, this book still manages to read with the simplistic casual tone of sitting down with a beloved friend for a chat over a cup of Joe or your favorite flavor of tea.

Whether you're familiar with Christine's other books or this is the first book of hers that has made its way into your paws, her candid voice and friendly demeanor are sure to find their way into your heart. Searching For Spring is one I'd suggest for any women who desire to feel closer to finding the answers to God's plans and motives within their own experiences - especially if you could use a friend to help you along the way. This book is good for new Christians just starting their walk with God, seasoned believers who seek a refresher on God's beauty and grace, and all those in between. 5/5 stars.
