3 Words That Will Change Your Life

Our women's Bible study group chose this book as we have read other books by Pastor Mike and loved them all. We all love his wit and accessible writing style. He writes for a wide range of readers which is good for all of us as we relate to those in our circles who aren't of our faith. Not only is this book Biblically sound, it is so full of imagery and analogy that it makes the difficult truths of God's Word relatable and easy to internalize and remember. Parts are hard to read, but he never promised warm and fuzzy. It strips us naked before our holy GOD and exposes us for who we really are - in a way that isn't 'in your face' nor offensive. Makes the Gospel message so much more amazing. I recommend this book for anyone who really wants to know GOD!

Beautiful! I am so excited to read it !

A quick read and so worthwhile - easy to understand and put into practice

A couple of months ago I was given a gift of “3 Words That Will Change Your Life” by a dear friend who is also a Lutheran pastor’s wife like me. She, along with two other pastor wife friends from our seminary days, have been slowly studying the book together and meeting on Zoom to discuss it. It’s so good - it has given old concepts a brand new twist - many “aha!”moments - it’s witty, but so informative - it’s fully grounded in scripture - it’s been a blessing to us, so much so that I ordered 35 copies to use with the women’s Bible study I lead in my church! Our church group will start on Sept 19th. They can’t wait, as I haven’t told them what the 3 Words are yet! Thanks for writing the book, Pastor Novotny - I know it’s going to be a blessing to my group.

This book was fantastic. It really helped me focus on thinking about God, even during every day mundane activities. If you need help forming habits of prayer, focusing on things above instead of on earthy things, or just want to deepen your relationship with God, this is the book for you. If you struggle with negativity, it’s a great reminder of the blessings we experience every day as Christians. It shares the secret to having joy and eagerly anticipating heaven in spite of the suffering we often experience on earth.
