"What Difference Do It Make" Book Review

When I was asked to review this book I looked forward to it, because I had enjoyed the first one so much. However, usually the sequels to many works are not up to par with the first but oh my, that does not apply to this !

"What Difference Do It Make" contains "stories of hope and healing" from the authors of "Same Kind Of Different As Me" written by Ron Hall, Denver Moore and Lynn Vincent. It is published by Thomas Nelson Publishers and was published this year. As of yet I don't think it has made the best seller list but given time I am sure it will! Once again I have to give kuddos to the cover designer. It captures perfectly the flavor and theme of the book. The covers of both books draw you in before you ever "crack" open the book.

This sequel continues with "more of the story, the rest of the story, the ongoing story" and all throughout the book are stories from others who have read the book and it has done one of two things, it has either changed their lives or caused them to help change others...all for the better. Almost every chapter begins with a story from Ron or Denver and then in the same chapter will be the stories of others who have read the book. Some bought the book at the urging of someone else or it was given to them. Also included are photos of some of Denvers artwork.

Just like the first one, this will make you take another look at the homeless situation and your attitude toward the homeless..."there but for the grace of God go I". This could happen to many more folk that you and I realize, homelessness for some is just one paycheck away. A friend of mine just related to me today, that while in California, she stopped to speak to a begger(that is her term, not mine) and her sister pulled her away and said, "Don't talk to him. He could pull a knife on you and rob you right here, right now. We don't do that here." She needs to read the book, heck, she needs to read both of the books.

This book has 201 pages, small maybe, but only in size. The power and the beauty contained within is awesome! There is a short page with info on all three authors. For more info you may go to www.ThomasNelson.com.

Hard cover: suggested retail price:$16.99

In my estimation both "Same Kind Of Different As Me" and "What Difference Do It Make?" would make AWESOME Christmas gifts. Give something this year that will make a difference, make a lasting impact... maybe the life you change will be your own!
