Rating: Summary: You are a Christian, Now What? Review: Have you ever asked yourself what it means to be a Christian and how can you glorify God and do his will? These are the questions that Kevin Wayne Johnson tackles in his first book, Give God the Glory.The language used in the book is descriptive, understandable and clear.

Rating: Summary: A Great Inspirational Guide for Life Review: I love to read, but I'm more of a fiction reader then a nonfiction reader. Yet and still, Give God The Glory really grabbed my attention from the beginning and held it to the end. Without being preachy, the author gives us good, sound, scriptural advice on how to glorify God in all that we do. Because of his easy to read style, this book is equally relevant to those of us who are already Christians and to those who have yet to make a decision for Christ. I'm giving this book as a gift to two incarcerated acquaintances who have expressed a desire to know Jesus for themselves, because I believe that no matter what level you're on spiritually, this book will minister to your needs. I'm looking forward to more books by this author.
Rating: Summary: Get to Know God the Right Way Review: Kevin Wayne Johnson's Give God the Glory is a wonderful instructional book broken up into two parts: KNOW GOD and DO THE WILL OF GOD. In Part One, he teaches readers how to glorify God at all times, comprehend that they are "called" whether they realize it or not, and learn how to recognize and utilize their personal spiritual gifts. In Part Two, he teaches readers to spread the gospel, stand tall, and be a blessing to others. While those may seem like simple requests, most people do not act upon them daily and Give God the Glory shows us how we can make it a habitual part of our lives. Each chapter ends with a list of questions to consider, which enables readers to analyze what they have just read and fully acclimate it into their souls. For those searching for an easy-to-read guide on spiritual enhancement, Give God the Glory is a wonderful selection. It is extremely positive to see a young African American male pen such a book because our male youth need more mentors to look to for assistance in their spiritual growth. Reviewed by Zane
