Unstoppable The Incredible Power of Faith inaction - Nick Vujicic

Unstoppable The Incredible Power of Faith inaction - Nick Vujicic

Think you've had a rough day? Try being in Nick's shoes. Well for one you can’t, as he does not own any because he has no feet, and did I mention he does not have any arms as well!

However, Nick skydives, surfs and has been to dozens of countries around the world and has spoken to millions of people.

From being a total medical surprise to his parents on delivery day, Nick has combated bulling, depression and immense physical obstacles to become a fantastic public speaker where he recants stories from his life. Using humour he explains to his audiences that when curious kids come up to him and ask what happened, Nick whispers with deadpan sincerity “Smoking”

I found this book really grounding and through Nick’s experiences they put everything you might be going through into perspective. Curiosity brings you to Nick but his warmth, demeanour and actually, very much his humour, makes you want to stick around.

Nick takes us into his world to tell us that whatever is thrown at you, you can deal with it through the power given by God's grace.

Nick reveals “Life has value and is a gift to others, and that no matter the despair and hard times, God is always present”

In the book Nick describes how he met his wife, talk about clichéd! Nick was speaking at an open-air event and their eyes met over a crowd! Unbelievable. What’s more astonishing is it that it took them months to finally admit their feelings and Nick eventually bit the bullet. Well if you don’t ask you don’t get! Nick and his wife were married in February 2012.

Thoroughly recommended for everyone. See Nick’s disability make waves in your life. Unstoppable is incredible, awe-inspiring and extremely up lifting. 5 out of 5.

12-21 – Dustin Thomason

The Mayans predicted the world would end on the 21.12.12 if you are reading this after that date, they were wrong! The balance of medical knowledge and ancient prophecy marinates well in 12-21. Page turning is rapid along with the twists and turns. The pseudoscience does divulge enough to grip the reader. However, it feels like we have heard this before, but there is nothing wrong with another deadly-virus-driven-apocalyptic-book, is there? Will the human-race survive? 3 out of 5.
