Now that's refreshing

As the marketing guy at Eisenbrauns, I receive a good bit of stuff—that's a nice way of saying junk!—but once in a while there is a refreshing breeze that comes in. I was just reading the latest edition of Christian Retailing and came across a review of a book called Surrender. I have no idea who the author is, apparently she is well known, but here is the part that was a breath of fresh air:

Lamb contrasted her book with the bestsellers Your Best Life Now by Joel Osteen and The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren, saying that her book is "almost a reverse."

"It's not what God can do for me, it's what happens when I surrender to Him," she said.

Amen! God-centered theology instead of man-centered, how refreshing.
