Average Rating: 
Rating: - He Is In Love With The Lord
Great! This man is truly in love with Jesus Christ and uses many life situations to show where God is working.
Rating: - Intellectually Bankrupt
The 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 often read books by C.S. Lewis and A.W. Tozer, and Ravi Zacharias had written a rather succinct introduction to one of those author's books. 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.
Rating: - Good, but simple
This was a gift I gave on the advice of a professor. I read the first chapter and found it was simple, but good. A nice read for those who are still in the early years of their Christian faith and those who want to explore more of what it means to be Christian.

Ravi Zacharias' The Grand Weaver is beautifully written (as are all his works) and full of profound insight. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that some of the stories in this book have either been used in some of his previous books or in his talks. Still, for those who aren't familiar with much of Ravi's work, these stories are a must-read. I highly recommend The Grand Weaver for those who already know the joy of reading his books, and most especially for those who are unfamiliar ... Read More
