Item description for Cast of Characters: Common People in the Hands of an Uncommon God by Max Lucado...
Overview
In Cast of Characters, Max Lucado gleans from several of his best-selling works to present some of the Bible's most interesting lives. Each chapter includes related Biblical text and discussion questions. Come closer to God's heart for you, by spending time with this cast of characters. Cast of Characters contains 22 character studies, profiling both men and women who loved and were loved by God. These heroes - from King David to Joseph, Moses to the Samaritan Woman, Abigail to Lazarus - may be known for their achievements, but Lucado explores how God accomplished more through their failures than their successes. Lucado reveals how these ancient biblical characters are relevant to modern concerns among people such as doubt, rejection, insignificance, purpose, humility, suffering, risk, and consequences.
Publishers Description
Common people... Story after story marked by scandal, stumble, and intrigue. Who are these people? They're the people of the Bible. And they're us. We find our stories in theirs. We find our hope where they found theirs. In the hands of an uncommon God. In the midst of them all... hovering over them all... is the hero of it all: God. Maker. Shaper. Rescuer of sinking hearts. God. Passing out high callings, second chances, and moral compasses to all comers and takers. In this gathering of inspiring stories from his numerous best-selling books, master storyteller Max Lucado revisits some of his favorite biblical characters—all of whom were very human and imperfect, just like us. If God can find a place for them . . . He just might have a place for us too. |

Reviews - What do customers think about Bktrax-Disc-Cast Of Characters (Unabrdg) (6 CD)?
 | Not Very Deep Dec 8, 2009 |
| This is the third Max Lucado book I have been gifted with. I read The Applause of Heaven a few years ago, and we own a few of the children's books Lucado has written. Cast of Characters was released last fall and contains portions of his previous writings. Lucado takes a brief look at a few dozen different men and women of God. It was simple enough that I was able to read parts of the book to my then six year old. Lucado has quite an imagination, and the creative writer in him takes some major liberties as he tells the stories of the people of the Bible. | | |  | Cast of Characters: Common People in the Hands of an Uncommon God by Max Lucado Sep 23, 2009 |
| Excellent book -- Max ties biblical characters and their stories to today's world in a way only Max Lucado can do it. Good, easy read! | | | | Cast of Characters by Max Lucado Sep 23, 2009 |
| Very enjoyble easy reading and inspiring at the same time. Max Lucado uses scripture characters and translates them into everyday people. It makes one realize that the people of the scriptures are in many ways just like us. | | | | Cast of Characters / Lucado Jul 16, 2009 |
| A good basis for a summer adult Sunday School study... Max Lucado comes through again with thought provoking views of biblical characters in a contemporary frame. | | | | Fantastic and Hard to Put Down!! Jun 18, 2009 |
It has been a long time since a book has drawn me in as this book has. Max Lucado has done it again. Cast of Characters gives a great down-to-earth characterization of many well known--and not so well known Bible characters.
What was the woman at the well thinking when Jesus asked her for some water? How would a Samaritan woman react to being approached by a Jew during those times? Max Lucado takes these classic Bible stories and adds his own personal spin based on the historical details of the times. He includes people like David, Abigail, John and Paul.
I truly enjoyed this book in it's entirety. Each chapter ends in thought-provoking discussion questions that are truly meant to be shared. I highly recommend that you share this book with your spouse, a close friend, a or a Sunday school group. This book was not meant to be read alone, but to be used as a wonderful study and discussion tool.
This is a fabulous addition to your personal library or a great holiday gift for a friend. I give it 5 stars--hands down!
