REVIEW: The Trail: A Tale about Discovering God’s Will by Ed Underwood
The
premise of this book drew me to want to read it, but unfortunately I found The Trail too much of a hike for me.
It
is about a pastor who leads a couple on a trail into the wilderness to help
discover God’s will. Some of the lessons they learn along the way include trust
in the Lord, intimacy with Jesus, God’s timing, signs of encouragement, and
grace.
Again,
while the concept of the book—following God’s path—is appealing, I was
unappetized.
I
felt the writing style was not conducive to following along. I often found
myself confused with who was saying what, and was especially confused between
the dialogue of characters Matt and Sam, often swapping them. Overall, this
book was a bit of a struggle for me.
*Tyndale House Publishers provided
me with a complimentary copy of this book for my unbiased review.
