Blog Tour and Giveaway: Vibrant by Carol McLeod

About the Book

Book: Vibrant

Author: Carol McLeod

Genre: Christian Living, Women’s Interest

Release Date: November 3, 2020

Have you ever met someone who possessed a quiet radiance so rich, so dynamic, that you ached for more, someone whose presence is so compelling you feel refreshed by a single conversation with them? If you know someone like this, you anticipate your times together. You realize their joy is contagious, their peace is deep, and their compassion is engaging.

Such people are “vibrant.” Regardless of their socioeconomic status, their education, their marital status, or their health, these people are determined to live joyfully, seeing each obstacle as an opportunity for growth. The vibrant individual’s persona is attached to their convictions rather than their circumstances.

Author Carol Burton McLeod believes everyone can choose to be Vibrant: Developing a Deep and Abiding Joy for All Seasons—and such a life begins by emulating Jesus. His life was filled with challenges and yet people were drawn to Him. Every character trait that we are called to embrace, every action of kindness or love, and each word of compassion or tenderness is a telling reflection of Christ within us. We are called to be a vibrant show-and-tell of what God is able to accomplish through one ordinary person.

Carol explores what it means to follow Jesus in a world filled with disappointment, rejection, and discouragement. And she provides gentle encouragement and suggestions from Scripture to help us do just that.

My Review

I found Vibrant: Developing a Deep and Abiding Joy for All Seasons to be a pleasure to read. It is, also, the first book I have read by Carol Burton McLeod. It is such a beautiful book of faith. She offers some wonderful words of encouragement and comfort. It was full of enjoyment and important lessons to live by in life as Christians. 

Vibrant: Developing a Deep and Abiding Joy for All Seasons is getting a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who are looking for some faith, inspiration, and Biblical truths. I would love to read more by Carol Burton McLeod soon. I will be holding to this one and re-read it over and over again. 

I received Vibrant: Developing a Deep and Abiding Joy for All Seasons from the publisher. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
