WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE - THE EMMY AWARD-WINNING HBO MINISERIES STARRING FRANCES MCDORMAND, RICHARD JENKINS, AND BILL MURRAY In a voice more powerful and compassionate than ever before, New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Strout binds together thirteen rich, luminous narratives into a book with the heft of a novel, through the presence of one larger-than-life, unforgettable character: Olive Kitteridge. At the edge of the continent, Crosby, Maine, may seem like nowhere, but seen through this brilliant writer's eyes, it's in essence the whole world, and the lives that are lived there are filled with all of the grand human drama-desire, despair, jealousy, hope, and love. At times stern, at other times patient, at times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, deplores the changes in her little town and in the world at large, but she doesn't always recognize the changes in those around her: a lounge musician haunted by a past romance: a former student who has lost the will to live: Olive's own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her irrational sensitivities; and Henry, who finds his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse. As the townspeople grapple with their problems, mild and dire, Olive is brought to a deeper understanding of herself and her life-sometimes painfully, but always with ruthless honesty. Olive Kitteridge offers profound insights into the human condition-its conflicts, its tragedies and joys, and the endurance it requires. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BYPeople - USA Today - The Atlantic - The Washington Post Book World - Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Entertainment Weekly - The Christian Science Monitor - San Francisco Chronicle - Salon - San Antonio Express-News - Chicago Tribune - The Wall Street Journal "Perceptive, deeply empathetic . . . Olive is the axis around which these thirteen complex, relentlessly human narratives spin themselves into Elizabeth Strout's unforgettable novel in stories."--O: The Oprah Magazine "Fiction lovers, remember this name: Olive Kitteridge. . . . You'll never forget her. . . . Elizabeth Strout] constructs her stories with rich irony and moments of genuine surprise and intense emotion. . . . Glorious, powerful stuff."--USA Today "Funny, wicked and remorseful, Mrs. Kitteridge is a compelling life force, a red-blooded original. When she's not onstage, we look forward to her return. The book is a page-turner because of her."--San Francisco Chronicle "Olive Kitteridge still lingers in memory like a treasured photograph."--Seattle Post-Intelligencer "Rarely does a story collection pack such a gutsy emotional punch."--Entertainment Weekly "Strout animates the ordinary with astonishing force. . . . She] makes us experience not only the terrors of change but also the terrifying hope that change can bring: she plunges us into these churning waters and we come up gasping for air."--The New Yorker

The Epic Battle Against False Prophecy and Deception: The Revelationary War
Format: Paperback
In the beginning of the book, The Revelationary War, the author, Amanda Grace uses the bible verses Amos 3:7, Genesis 1:29 & Gen 2:16-17 to introduce the title of her book. She explains that prophecy is not just about revealing and revelation-it is an announcement of the thoughts, plans, purposes, and jugments of God. She goes on to say that at its basic, prophecy is an announcement from God. It can contain instructions, plans, encouragement, judgments, blessings, revelations, and anything else that God wants to announce to His people. She also explains that what is happening now is a direct result of what happened in the Garden of Eden. The author says, "It is time to sharpen our discernment and confront the counterfeits invading the church!"
The author goes on to explain that there is an Epic Battle going on! The Revelationary War is a battle between what is false & what is real. The book has 12 chapters. The first chapter starts with "What is Prophecy?" and ends with chapter 12 entitled: The challenge and the Choice.
The author uses bible verses all throughout the book. She uses it to back up and explain what we are seeing today and how it all follows a bibilical cycle. If you understand the biblical cycle we are in, you will then be able to understand where we are on God's timeline. The author also shares a few of her own personal experiences & how God used them to teach her and train her.
What I discovered and learned:
●Knowing the difference between The Gift of Prophecy and The Office of a Prophet
●Understanding the difference between a SHOWMAN & a SHEPHERD
●How to identify the telltale signs of false prophets and recognize true prophecy when you hear it
●How to Avoid con artists, psychics, witchcraft, and divination disguised as prophetic or deliverance ministries
●Why discernment in the Body of Chist is lacking and what we can do to sharpen our discernment
●How Technology and Media work hand in hand and play a part in prophecy and what we should pay attention to
As you dive into this book, be prepared to hear the truth! I purchased the paperback edition because I wanted a hard copy, not digital. From what I understand, this is Amanda Grace's first book! Being a follower of her X account and watching her LIVE broadcasts, I was very interested in reading it. I found this book to be full of Godly biblical wisdom, and knowledge into the world of the Prophectic. You will discover how biblical cycles play a very important part in prophecy and how to understand where we are on God's timeline. You will also learn how the enemy has infiltrated the churches and the difference between the showman and the sheperd! When I finished the book, I went back and read it a second time, taking notes and highlighting all the things that I felt were important. I have to say that the second go around, I even gleened more knowledge!
Amanda has a passion for bringing people the truth of God's word and helping those who have fallen into the trap of being deceived! She has a true love for God's people, and she shares her knowledge & experience to help others who are eager to learn. Her in-depth knowledge of the prophectic is a tool that every christian should desire. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning the truth of God's word and desiring to know how the prophetic works.
* I did not receive any compensation for writing this review. I purchased this book because of my interest in the author and what she has to say about the prophectic. This review was based totally on my own views and what I learned & discovered from reading this book. I learned so much! I believe that anyone who is looking for the Truth in God's word and how prophecy plays an important part in every believer's life should read this. Thank you, Amanda, for writing this book! I believe it is a timely piece that God will use to help others understand the prophectic and the times we are living in. God Bless You!
