Max Lucado - Great Day Every Day - Book Review


For the past few months I have been reading a book called "Great Day, Every Day." by Max Lucado. I received this book from Booksneeze in exchange for a review be it positive or otherwise. The book is written in true Max Lucado format with real life stories meshed with biblical examples. The approach for the book is to show that each day can be a great day, even with its challenges. Each section in the book starts with a “compass” to guide your thinking as you read. This offers a guide for what to look for when reading about how to make each day the best that it can be. Max leads the reader on a journey to discover how to forget about yesterday and to approach each day for what it is, brand new.

Before reading this book I tried to approach each day as a new adventure, but I found myself reverting back to the same old rut and having each day turn out pretty much the same as the day before. Letting myself try to focus more on the new day and following God’s direction I found that each day can be great. Max Lucado does an awesome job of keeping the reader enthused and wanting to read more. This book offers a way of getting over the bumps and hills that you encounter and keep focused on God and what truly matters, and coming out at the end of the day saying “today was a great day.”
