The Continuous Atonement (2009) - Plot & Excerpts

I usually really enjoy Brad Wilcox's books. This one left me a little empty. Perhaps I did not really get the point. I thought it was that the Atonement is something we can access at any time (in the midst of righteousness or sin).Truthfully? I couldn't get past the first couple of chapters. If you've read this, I'd like to know if it is worth checking out again from the library and "enduring to the end." I found myself in tears many times while reading this book - not in sadness, but in joy. It is filled with hope, peace, and comfort to those who have committed grievous sins and those who have committed small ones; those who feel hurt, alone, or worthless; and those who just want to do a little better.Brad Wilcox provides an amazing perspective on the power and beauty of the Atonement, and emphasizes over and over the love our Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ have for each of us, no matter how insignificant we feel at times. He reinforces the concept of a continuous, unhindered, everlasting Atonement available to all of us, no matter how gravely we may sin or how many times, if we but allow it to change our hearts and our spirits.I'm sure I'll find myself reading this many more times as I struggle, learn, and grow in life.

What do You think about The Continuous Atonement (2009)?

"I remember as a young school teacher ...asking my wife, Debi, "when does life even out? Why does it always feel like a roller coaster with so many highs and lows all in the same day? I wish life would just level out."Being a nurse, Debi replied, "Brad, when you get hooked up to the heart monitor, you don't want to see a straight line. That's bad news. It's the up and own lines that let you know you are alive."The high and lows let us know we are participating and not just observing, learning and not just existing. President Gordon B Hinckley said, "I know it isn't easy. It's discouraging at times, sure. Aren't you glad it isn't just fun all the time? Those valleys of discouragement make more beautiful the peaks of achievement."

I thought this book was great. Brad Wilcox always has a way to make you feel better about yourself and your place in the Plan of Salvation. He knows how to bring comfort and peace into your life. I'm very appreciative of the Spirit and testimony he has in his life. The Continuous Atonement helped me understand the Atonement of Jesus Christ, and that the effects of it are not dispersed randomly though out my life but are continuous. The greatest review I can give is, considering the length of the book, it certainly helped me.
