The Book Review About Candice Johnson 's Book "Only Tithes Will Tell"
"Only Tithes Will Tell" written by Candice Johnson is a marvelous uplifting story. It has an insightful and inspiring look at the purpose of tithing. It also have an insightful look about greed and giving. I found "Only Tithes Will Tell" in the storyline mentioned about realistic situations, drama and different personalities which I loved. Although unfortunately it breaks my heart to acknowledge about some individuals who supposed to be Christians are so heavenly bound in disguise aren't earthly good. This story was so interesting for me that it was a quick read. Candice Johnson made sure that the story was a great read with a well developed characters who needed to work through their own obstacles surrounding about the word of tithing. Also dealing what the purpose of tithing not just financially but also giving of our time, talents and gifts. Again Candice did a great tasks of tackling the subject about tithing through The lives of these well developed characters.
"Only Tithes Will Tell" is one of those Christian Fictions Story that you will simply love right away. Even though this is a Christian Fiction, although in the real world there are imperfect individuals that serve a Mighty God that is so perfect. They truly tried their best to do right but they make mistakes just like the rest of us. Nobody isn't perfect. This story reminds me of a blockbuster movie on the big screen. The Characters were created well developed that responded and interacted to each other. The storyline also shown growth through the main characters. The storyline I have found to be Thought Provoking. It was a witty and sometimes heartbreaking and inspiration narrative with the Church As the foundation. We think that we truly knows our Pastor. The question is 'How well do we really knows our Pastor?' Also what is truly the meaning of tithing? Does paying or not paying tithes really affect our blessings from God? Or we stealing from God from not paying our tithes? There are so many though provoking questions to think about. There never been a dull moments in the reading of "Only Tithes Will Tell" because I know that Candice will write a great Christian Story that will have a teaching moments about faith and forgiveness. The messages in this story was delivered in several sermons from the well developed characters. The domestic violence that the Character of The Bishop gave to his own daughter was so troubled to me. He was a creepy wolf disguise in sheep clothing. He did some seriously damages to his daughter Cassidy physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally. Also I was angry that the facts when you pay your tithes but when you call on hard times that The Church won't help you at all. The theme of the story is there is a difference between religion and spirituality which was marvelously spelled out. Candice presented a story about growth in faith during the midst of struggling. I pray that there will be a continuous story in the near future. I recommend everyone to read this story for yourself.
Absolutely!!
