Center of the Universe Too – Book Review

universe_02Homespun Stories with High Impact Implications

Center of the Universe Too is the second of Pastor Bill Johnson’s compilations of humorous unique stories and incidents accompanied with inspirational insight, life application, Biblical promises, or prophetic hope. These short stories provide behind the scenes glimpses into to Johnson’s life and lead the reader into a deeper desire and hunger to know God more intimately.

Each short chapter is packed with simple every day illustrations and an unwritten invitation to ponder on a thought provoking point of application or a practical Biblical truth – a powerful combination.

I appreciated Pastor Johnson’s openness in revealing some of the foibles present in his life that are common to so many of us, his keen wit and ability to laugh at himself, learn from these idiosyncrasies and grow in the process. He masterfully weaves together how God can take our human frailties and convert and direct them into dynamos of supernatural energy for His glory.

Johnson has the gift of coining high impact descriptive phrases and word pictures that become deeply etched on the heart. Center of the Universe Too: A Look at Life From the Lighter Side is a powerful reminder to put and keep Christ at the center of our universe in every area of our lives, beginning with the small things.
