 Rating:  - Interesting read, but not Ravi's best workDr. Ravi Zacharias is one of the best modern Christian Apologists in the world today. I have read several of his books, listened to his radio program for years, and heard him lecture in person. In the Grand Weaver Ravi takes a more reflective approach and provides an interesting read. Ravi describes how God works in our lives, sometimes in very subtle ways. Full of stories and pragmatic examples, this book is different than most his other works, and can be very beneficial to Christians. I found his ... Read More Rating:  - Just not well doneI love Ravi. I agree for the most part with his basic premise here. I enjoyed some of the stories annecdotes. But that being said reading this book was an awful chore that I had to slog through. Maybe it is just me; maybe it's the style it was written. I don't know what exactly it was, but I had a very hard time with this book. Not the concepts, or the material ... it just didn't capture me, I found it hard to plow through I didn't want to read it. Rating:  - He Is In Love With The LordGreat! This man is truly in love with Jesus Christ and uses many life situations to show where God is working. Rating:  - Intellectually BankruptThe introduction starts out telling the story of an Indian father/son weaving team creating beautiful saris out of thread, then uses this as evidence in a rather absurd leap: "Now if an ordinary weaver can take a collection of colored threads and create a garment to beautify the face, is it not possible that the Grand Weaver has a design in mind for you, a design that will adorn you as he uses your life to fashion you for his purpose, using all the threads within his reach."

I expected his book to therefore be similar. While it is a well written book, it is more inspirational in flavor than I typically prefer. If you are looking for a book similar to Max Lucado's style, with a little more theology and a little less story telling, this is probably a good fit for you.
