Boring: Finding an Extraordinary God in an Ordinary Life - Michael Kelley I received this book as part of the Goodreads first-read program. I really enjoyed it! The author is able to talk about ordinary events in everyone's lives and make them extraordinary! Eating breakfast with your children is not just breakfast! When God and spirituality is a part of your daily life, you realize that you are not boring and ordinary....

He goes through all different parts of a normal life, for most people, and intersperses bible quotes into the discussion, making them relevant to our daily lives. This is a very easy to read book, you don't have to have any theological background at all to read and apply the teachings!

I would have given this 5 stars as it is interesting and very well written. However, I have just a few minor issues with a few things, but that is just me... I am not a theologian, so I will not bring up these very minor points here, nor do I think this is the place to do it! That being said, the book really is for everyone, no matter what religion or denomination! It is biblically based, so it is written mainly for Christians, but I believe anyone can be helped by this book! Don't let what you think is an ordinary boring life get you down, pick up this book instead!

Thank you for the opportunity to read this one!
