The Unexplainable Church by Erica Wiggenhorn

Book Description 
Frustrated with the watered-down, “light” Bible studies that are all too common, Erica Wiggenhorn wanted to write a study that went deep. She wanted to take readers verse-by-verse through a whole book of the Bible, offering theological and
historical comments in each lesson while remaining practical and relational.  
The Unexplainable Church is the result, and it offers readers two great takeaways. It will teach them by example how to study the Bible deeply, and it will challenge them toward critical life-change: submitting their will to the mission of Jesus, who gives life its fullest meaning.
The message of The Unexplainable Church is that the early church didn't grow because Peter and Paul were so amazing, but because average people were transformed by God and brought together in His work. This 10-week inductive study of Acts 13–28 will sweep readers into the great drama of the Kingdom, inspiring them to live together in the power of the Spirit and accomplish what could never be done alone.

My Review

When I first received Eric's book "The Unexplainable Life" and saw that it was only on the first 12 chapters of Acts I didn't think too much on it. However, after reading it, I prayed she would finish the book of Acts. I was so excited when I saw she had! Prayers answered!

I got it as soon as possible and delved into it. Erica breaks down the scripture in an understandable but not in a mushed-up-baby-food, way. No. You chew and think about everything. At least I did and I felt full and satisfied afterwards. I love digging deeper into God's word and Erica does just that in this book. 

Encouraging and inviting, I hate putting it down!

I highly recommend this book and if you haven't started with her first book "An Unexplainable Life: Acts 1-12" I recommend you get that as well! You won't be disappointed!

Thank you Erica for finishing the book of Acts study!

I give this book a 5 out of 5 stars!

CSB Notetaking Bible, Sage Cloth Over Board Review

My Book Review

I have definitely enjoyed this Bible! I was pleasantly surprised just how great of quality it turned out to be. Also, never having read/used a CSB (Christian Standard Bible) before, I wasn't sure what to expect. Again, beyond what I expected. I've been using it ever since along with my NLT and it's been such a helpful tool and eye opener!

I love the notetaking sections on the side. I've already begun to use them, which I've never done before in any bible (always in a notepad) and it's right there when I'm looking at verses again. Great reminders when I'm looking back at verses.

The only thing I wish it had was Jesu's words in red ink.

I would absolutely give this as a gift to a friend or family member! It's beautiful, it's simple and quality.

I give this book a 5 out of 5 stars!
