The Journey and Destiny of a Christian Book Review

By Margaret Lukasik

The Journey and Destiny of a Christian is without a doubt one of the most empowering and enlightening books for new Christians or believers seeking transformation according to Romans 12:2. It's written by Ted Matamis and is based upon his popular email ministry, A Spiritual Note From The Bible. Each of the 100 topics included prompts and encourages readers to either surrender their hearts to Christ or to reassess their Christian commitment to live for Christ by changing thoughts, words, or actions to reflect God's Word.

The book is well organized and a pleasure to read. It's not preachy, but instead illuminates the variety of information the author shares including relevant scripture, Christian wisdom and knowledge based upon his ministry experience and his teaching of ancient Greek of the New Testament. He also shares exciting, inspiring and heart-warming stories and quotes from well-known Christians and inspiring Christian testimonies. Each topic or chapter is based 100 percent upon scripture.

One can see a clear path for following Christ throughout the book which offers a unique teaching approach for new Christians who are unable to find the leadership needed within their local churches after their conversion to Christ. While many Christians earnestly seek to win souls to Christ, some lack that same enthusiasm when it comes to ensuring that new believers get the training needed to become fully mature in Him. This can result in some Christians falling back into their previous lives of sin. Therefore, The Journey and Destiny of a Christian is a great source of teaching for Christians who put their whole heart into winning souls but have never been taught how to keep those souls grounded in God's Word and love.

I recommend this book for individuals seeking to understand God's truth and how to live it in Christ and for churches and Bible study groups. It clearly shows what it means to be a Christian!
