I had not read anything from O.S. Hawkins and I have now become a fan. The book, The Daniel Code: Living Out Truth in a Culture that is Losing its Way, was an exceptional book. It is 25 chapters long, but each chapter is only about 8 pages. This book would make a great Christmas present, as it has a signing page and has a great hardcover.
Hawkins chronicles the life of the Old Testament prophet Daniel to help the reader better understand and learn how to go against the culture and demonstrate our faith in Christ to the world.
This book was easy to read, but it was very thought provoking. I used it for my devotions, as there is a Bible verse to begin each chapter. Even though Hawkins is talking about culture wars, the book is very encouraging and not demeaning to other groups.
Hawkins writes from a conservative Evangelical Christian worldview. This book is also helpful to understand the way the world reacts to Christians who are willing to speak about their faith or speak on issues they support, while the world is against them.
Hawkins has written a number of other “Code” books, which I look forward to reading.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through www.booklookbloggers.com in exchange for an honest review.
