Coffee with Jesus by author Richard W. Block is a delightful and entertaining collection of inspirational short stories, full of adventure and realism. These personal real-life stories explore the author’s interests, his fears, his thoughts on different aspects of life, his personal experiences, and those close to him among others. The spectacular yarn also addresses a variety of modern-day themes including travel, sports, and humanitarianism.
Packed with humor and faith-based lessons, Coffee with Jesus leaves readers not only wiser but also more aware. Author Richard W. Block breaks the writing style across the chapters by asking readers thought-provoking questions while also providing answers to them on the following page.
It is evident these real-life stories came from the insight of a reflective and attentive soul, and as a reader made me look at life’s events in an entirely new vein. It is not often one gets to revel in such beautiful prose. The author articulates his thoughts well making the stories an enthralling escapade.
The fascinating tome will almost inevitably bring inspiration and delight to all readers. I especially loved how the author interweaved childhood stories and events from his adulthood with careful precision. The stories are honest and humorous with the author allowing readers to get a glimpse of his innermost thoughts. The language used is family-friendly as well and easy to understand, hence perfect for all ages. The creative retelling of the stories is both entertaining and pensive.
No matter what one’s literary tastes are, “Coffee with Jesus” will not disappoint. There is something for everyone in this warm-hearted book including pet lovers, environmental activists, outgoing people, and just about anyone. With a warm cup of coffee, open the door and embrace the adventures!
