Not A Sparrow Falls

Infected by Alana Terry is a Christian thriller which I really enjoyed. It is the sixth book in the Kennedy Stern series but can be read as a stand-alone.

I have read all the books in the series so far and it was great to catch up with familiar faces. I was completely engrossed in the action with its twists and turns. The ending caught me completely by surprise.

God is at the centre. There are old and new Christians. The new ones question all the time – both eager to grow and wondering why being a Christian does not guarantee a smooth ride through life.

The prosperity gospel was discussed and dismissed. Our faith has nothing to do with the size of our wallet and everything to do with the state of our heart.

Sacrificial love was the order of the day.

Prayer is vital. Prayer chains in times of trouble can uphold us.

God desires a relationship with us. Religion can motivate for harm. Relationship is always based on love.

There is loss. “Demanding God to tell her why.” Knowing the answers will not always help. God is big enough to take our anger. He wants us to maintain our relationship with Him and keep our eyes fixed on Him.

Nothing surprises God. He sees and knows it all.

Infected is another cracking novel from Alana Terry. It is a fabulous series.

I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.
