God Wants to Hear You Sing is a book compromised of short stories of faith, overcoming, and the music that has helped people to overcome their challenges in life.
Ruthie Jacobsen, with Rodney Griffin, present each story, along with a song that Rodney has written, in each chapter of the book. Also there is a free cd or music download for your mp3player, of each song that is the titled chapters. Some of the chapter and song titles include, Merciful to Me, He's Still Waiting by the Well, Common Garment and the book title God Wants to Hear You Sing. If your a fan of southern gospel music, you will enjoy the free cd /download, as the music is very well performed.
This book has wonderful stories of real people living their lives to all they can to fulfill their purpose in God, the story of David Ring especially touched me, with his overcoming and his faith to know what God has called him to. Some of these stories, will have you chuckling, and some will have you near tears as you follow along, as they overcome and share their faith. Some of the stories were familiar to me, due to them being reprinted from other books I have read but this compilation, presented with the songs, was a wonderful book.
This book is a blessing to anyone who reads it, it is a faith builder, and a positive influence to all who read it, I give this book a 4 star rating.
