REVIEW: STAY: Lessons my dogs taught me about
life, loss, and grace by Dave Burchett
This is a sweet book that reads like a Christian
devotional (as the chapters are relatively short, usually less than 10 pages) and
is a treat for dog lovers!
Throughout the book, author Dave Burchett lays
out lessons he has learned over the years from his beloved canines like gratitude,
living in the moment, and forgiveness. Burchett then relates those lessons from
his dogs to biblical stories, turning the wisdom back to our relationship with
the Lord.
I finished the book with many dog-eared pages (yes, I used that pun!) and tears. Some
of the lessons Burchett learned along the way came through loss of his beloved
pets—heart wrenching, but beautifully captured.
If you are a dog lover or know one, hand them
this book. And if you know a dog lover who is not a Christian, this could be a
great outreach tool to introduce them to Scripture and the Creator of all.

me with a complimentary copy of these books for my unbiased review.
