Synced by Jennifer Kennedy Dean Including a Giveaway

Are you living a synced life, connected to the heart of Jesus the same way He lived synced to the Father? Get ready to be challenged in Jennifer Kennedy Dean's new book, Synced.

What was the secret to Jesus’ life of power? How do we see His life of power emanating from His life of prayer? How do we see Jesus walking in a flow of power as He found Himself in the right place at the right time with the right resources? See what the Scripture has to show us about living connected to the heart of Jesus, and hear from present-day believers who have experienced the power of living synced.

Synced encourages you to emulate the way Jesus lived His life. With real-life stories of people walking closely with Jesus, finding themselves in the right place at the right time, readers are challenged to examine what staying in step with the Spirit looks like. National best-selling author and known prayer expert, Jennifer Kennedy Dean, uses the familiar passage of the
Lord's Prayer as anchor points to present the way Jesus lived His life in step with the Father through prayer.

My Take:
Various parts of this book ministered to my heart. My desire is definitely to live in sync with my Heavenly Father and Jesus my Savior. But at times it is difficult to see just how to get there. Jennifer does a wonderful job putting her thoughts into words and echoing the mind of Christ and how He lived in sync with His heavenly Father while in human form, feeling the same things we feel, yet totally submitted to God's will for His life. Wow! That is exactly what I want my life to look like - like Jesus'.

Jennifer shares by using the Lord's Prayer and breaking it up over several chapters. She says: "Living synced starts with an unreserved commitment to full and undiluted obedience. The hours spent syncing His heart (Jesus') to the Father's in prayer were the explanation for His flowing fluent rhythms of obedience, in step with the Father." Over and over, Jennifer takes us back to prayer - prayer is the essence of living an empowered life. She repeatedly shares the importance of prayer with stories and examples from Scripture and the life of Christ as He lived on earth while being in constant communion with the Father.

What I gleaned from this book:
It is possible for us to live like Jesus; to walk in the power of God because we are so in sync with Him. To be in total submission to Him that His will always over-rides our own will. This is a book, I feel like I could return to often, when I need to be reminded and refreshed spiritually. With all the distractions in today's day and age, it is easy to feel dis-communicated with God and just go about doing our own thing. Living synced takes work but is worth it to live victoriously in peace and have rest in our souls. I was once again reminded that prayer is the essence of living. Without it, I am truly nothing.

I felt like this book was written in a way that was easy to understand. In some places it may be a little repetitive, but still worth reading. It isn't a read in one sitting type book, but more one you would read as a devotional or addition to daily Bible reading.

I was blessed with a complimentary copy of this book by Litfuse Publicity in exchange for my honest opinion.
