A review by homegrownbookpicks
Fearfully and Wonderfully Made by Paul W. Brand

5.0

I read this book aloud to my 13 year old to go along with a study of the human body. We had also read a biography of Dr. Brand recently, so this was a good next step.

The book included fascinating stories and factual information about the body systems, and then made the metaphor between our body and Christ’s body. And what a beautiful metaphor it is.

Dr. Brand had an amazing gift of scientific knowledge, and a deep love of God and people. This shone through brightly in the book. I can’t wait to read more Brand/Yancey collaborations. Next on my shelf is “The Gift of Pain”.
