The Spiritual Battle

Sometimes there is only one word to define something and today for me, the word for Lucretia Shaw Cargill's book, is PHENOMENAL!

Before I continue with my review, I must remind my readers that my reviews are of amateur authors/writers.  I give these new writers a platform that is very rarely provided, especially to thoe who aren't writing erotica.  That's a whole 'nother story in itself.  But, I digress!

Because the message in this book is so darn remarkable, I almost forgot Mrs. Cargill is what we call amateur.  If she's not seasoned in her walk as an author, she is definitely or appears to be seasoned in her faith walk.  She constantly reminds us (the readers) of her experiences of pain, persistence, dedication, and strength while yet reminding us that we wrestle not with flesh and blood.  Therefore, we must cast all of our cares on the one who gives us life.

I enjoyed reading "The Spiritual Battle".  In fact, I enjoyed it so much, I forgot I had more books in Que.  I wanted to read every word from start to finish. I found myself trying to buy time.  I think what resonated with me is her particular style of telling her story.  I'm not sure if she knows it or not but I almost thought I was reading one of the many old school christian books my great grand mother used to have sitting in her living room.  You see, there is no fluff with this book.  There is no new age jargon...just real raw heart wrenching christian emotion. 

Yes, Lucretia took me back to my roots.  What an enjoyable experience.



Drum roll please....

I give "The Spiritual Battle"
