It started when writer Ann Voskamp was challenged by a friend to make a list of 1000 things she was thankful for, things that God had blessed her with in her life. That dare turned into this book.
One Thousand Gifts is written in a beautiful, very poetic style, different from other nonfiction books, making it enjoyable to read even for those who usually read fiction. It is sprinkled with stories from the author's own childhood and excerpts of the list of 1000 gifts that she wrote, and finished.
As November and Thanksgiving season approaches, I highly recommend this book as something every Christian should read!
What do you think? Have you read this book? Was it inspiring to you? If you haven't read it, will you read it now?
