Something Needs to Change: A Call to Make Your Life Count in a World of Urgent Need by David Platt - A Book Review

Something Needs to Change: A Call to Make Your Life Count in a World of Urgent Need    David Platt


It is my opinion that even the most complacent among our Christian brothers and sisters could not fail to have their heart stirred by the scenes painted on hearts and minds by the words penned within this book. However, a real danger lies in letting it go at that. Platt not only takes readers along on his emotional trek through the beauty as well as the physical and spiritual suffering of the Himalayas, he also takes us through his journey of the book of Luke. He uses Scripture to show us what God expects of His children and the ramifications of how we choose to respond.

My copy of Something Needs to Change is filled with icons and reflections. I cannot wait for my husband to read the book along with my book graffiti. I am thinking about how our lives may change as we wrestle with our answers to the challenges presented.

This book has the potential of being life changing. It has the potential to spur the reader to a life of greater meaning and impact. Beware, it also has the danger of bringing the responsibility of acting on the urgent needs it gives you the knowledge of.

I could not recommend a book more highly than this one. I am more than grateful to have received a copy from Multnomah in exchange for my honest opinion. I was under no obligation to provide a positive review, and received no monetary compensation. #PRHpartner
