Life Interrupted: Navigating the Unexpected

Logo books by Priscilla Shirer

Good stuff. Worth a 2nd read.

I stumbled upon this book looking for more literature from Priscilla Shirer in my local library's ebook collection. This happened to be the only Shirer book they had. God brought this book to me at just the right time! It ministered to me at exactly the point of need. Shirer's writing is so personal. Her voice is honest and welcoming. God has truly gifted her to minister in the written word. Somehow the sentiments of her heart (of God's heart) come through the pages of her books with such clarity and warmth that you feel as if she is writing a personal letter just to you. It's a fireside chat, coffee with friends, a confidence shared between sisters. What I really appreciate about this book and others that I've read is that it's not a bunch of fluff. The woman has definitely been in the Bible and done her research. Every claim is Biblically sound, making the Word of God accessible and inviting. The last pages left me humbled to tears. God is awesome. Surrender to his will for your life. You won't be disappointed. Read this book!

If you are going in your walk with Christ, this is a great book to read.

I liked how Sister Shirer made a comparison between her life and Jonah’s, as well as another Christians. It’s refreshing to know that an interruption is a divine calling from God to move us in the direction of his plan. I recommend this book to anyone who’s running from God or uncertain about their assignment to read this book. I gave a five rate because I believe the book was well written and gave clarity to the heart, love, and discipline for them that are called according to his purpose. And that our trust and obey is vital to those God call.

Wow! Where do I start? Oh I know. At the end. The best it yet to come! I read this book as part of a 21-day Women’s Fast during a season my life when my family is preparing to place my 21 year old son with severe intellectual disabilities into a group home. The thought of it still concerns me even as I write this review but I can see glimpses of God’s divine intervention all throughout this journey. I know that God opened up this door for us because the physical and emotional journey has been overwhelming to say the least BUT God is doing a new thing in our lives and I am encouraged to allow this Life Interruption to bring God all the glory. I trust God that the best is yet to come.

This is the first of Priscilla Shirer's books that I've read. Her writing style is conversational at times and intellectually instructive at others. She includes examples from her own life, making it very personal. But most importantly, she redirected my thinking. That is what I look for in a book devoted to Christian living. To see life's changes as God interventions rather than interruptions shifted and undergirded my belief in His sovereignty. At a time when one is facing big life changes (or even small irritating ones) this truth sustains one. The first chapter is worth the price. I'm so glad Providence bright this book to me at just the right time.

I was watching Joyce Meyer on the tv and her guest on the show that day was Priscilla. I listened to her speak and really liked her and what she had to say. I decided to take a look at her book, Life Interrupted. The title spoke to me immediately. You see, that's exactly how I was feeling about MY LIFE!!! I hoped that she could give me the Godly perspective on the things that were going on in my life that I was not enjoying and were mostly causing frustration and anger. Her book did exactly what I hoped it would. And since I need to be reminded of these truths when I fall back into my old thought patterns, I am using the book frequently to remind me how to think and feel about the circumstances of my life that I did not pursue and would like to be released from. I truly believe that this book was God inspired for all of us who are struggling with circumstances we did not want but cannot abdicate. I have a brand-new perspective that I desperately needed. I prayed for help and it came in the form of a book written by a very Godly woman.

Ella escribe con fluidez en un estilo muy personal relacionando con su historia personal.

God has His people.I watched the movie "war room"(4 times & still counting),l have read "God is able" & now just finised this one.12yrs ago l become born,ever since l never looked back & the lord Jesus Christ planted a powerful seed in heart to b a prayer warrior.With open arms by His grace am faithful to my calling.Two years ago l was diagnosed with ALS,& my faith was tested but Romans 8:35-39 is clear so like your friend Brigette faithfully said "Lets see God's next move".Your book just added another brick to strengthen my trust,faith & love of my living God "Yahweh" Thank you

Definitely a must read! Those times we call things interruptions, keep open, many times they are God-interventions or divine interventions! We can learn so much more from the interruptions in life. Now I keep my mind alert when interruptions happen as I don't want to miss what God really wants for me and this interruption can be Hus way of getting my attention and back on the right track. I highly recommend this book to everyone!Not just women...

Fantastic read. Challenging and deals with a phase of life we all go through, 'what to do with spilt milk' as regards our lives.

Amazing! So inspirational to read.
