Imagine Morgan Freeman dispensing wisdom from books he has gathered from works by Gary Chapman (Marriage Expert), Andy Stanley (Life Coach), John Maxwell (Leadership Guru), Les and Leslie Parrot (Relationships) and autobiographies of famous leaders in seemingly random places and random people. This is what you have when you read The Noticer. The main character shares bits and pieces of wisdom and perspective as he meets people struggling with issues in life and marriage. The book closes with a memorable object lesson and a remarkable revelation.
The purpose of this book is to cause you to pause, reflect, and take stock of where you are going in life. It is an excellent read for those who need to stop and think about their purpose in life. At times, I found it very sappy and unrealistic, but as I also found it’s interactive application of wisdom to life, I realized that it was an excellent example of what many of people need to see. Wisdom applied to real life.
If you are looking for a fast and easy read that can also cause you to pause, then this book is for you! Wisdom is always best when applied, but getting there always takes perspective.
