UNIQUE AND GIFTED

PATH TO A FRUITFUL LIFE

In this eye-opening, stimulating, and very readable book, Unique and Gifted: Path to a Fruitful Life, Pastor Jude Akinleyimu takes us through an understanding that many Christian authors have not shed light on for so long. His book is the one that challenges many of human's ability to develop and actualize God-given gifts in the human's life. I like how the book shows that gifts are God-given, and we have to make good use of them all. Jude Akinleyimu classified the various Gifts, Talents, and Skills that make the believers stand out and empower them for the Body of Christ. Readers will feel as though they're part of an advanced study led by the Holy Spirit with a line by line understanding that reveals who they are and the gifts they possess. Then he urges them not to hide their gifts but to put them to work. I like the personal example Jude Akinleyimu gave in one of the chapters, "Do Away With Inferiority" and how he was able to overcome this in his early time as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ assigned by their Church General Overseer to go and serve as an Area Pastor of a Church district. The assignment was very challenging-and he shows how he was able to overcome this. Overall, Jude Akinleyimu, in his book, engages the reader from the beginning to the last chapter-and leaves the reader with a desire to do more for the Body of Christ."
