Library Book Review
God’s greatest desire is to be your dwelling place – the home for your heart. In “The Great House of God,” Max Lucado tells us that God doesn’t want to be merely a weekend getaway, Sunday bungalow or even a summer cottage. He wants to be your mailing address, your point of reference, your home . . . always. He wants you to live in the Great House of God. Using the Lord’s Prayer as a floor plan, Max Lucado takes you on a tour of the home God intended for you. The roof never leaks, the walls never crack, the foundation never trembles. Come home. Your Father is waiting. Find it in the Christian Life section.
