5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, Honest, Confessional and Humble, October 12, 2010
By 
This review is from: Gracenomics: Unleash The Power Of Second Chance Living (Kindle Edition)
In 'Gracenomics,' Mike Foster thoughtfully engages an old conversation with a fresh and new imagination. What is grace and how do we relate to it? Mike suggests that we spend grace as freely as we receive it.

The book is beautiful--literally, the design and layout are captivating and creative--and beautifully unpacks some tender conversations around judgment, failure and second chances.

And the framework is pretty solid too, the subtitles gently pulled me forward into the conversation with hooks like (some of the best):

*Pez Dispensers of Grace
*Becoming A Person of No Reputation
*Authentic Harshness
*Vulture Culture
*Don't Make A Career Out of Being A Victim
*Make Friends With Your Shadow
*The Forgiveness Instinct
*People Are Not Evil, They Are Weak
*Transparent Mistakes
*Don't Be So Dang Serious
*Don't Diss Your Disaters
*Join the Scandal

After finishing it, I had to put it down and sit in the impact of what I had just read. The stories and lessons are gifts and the book may be one of the best things I've ever read on what grace, acceptance and inclusion can be when we throw ourselves at the mercy of grace.

'Gracenomics' makes you feel safe, that it's safe to go to some of the painful and hidden places in our lives. 'Gracenomics' makes you feel free, that we're free to explore the best and worst of ourselves and others with a posture of acceptance and celebration. 'Gracenomics' makes you feel hopeful, that even after all the mistakes we've made, hope is still waiting for us with open arms.

I usually don't say this, but I'm actually grateful for this little book packed full of inviting truths.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sooo ready to Join The Scandal!, October 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gracenomics: Unleash The Power Of Second Chance Living (Kindle Edition)
First, let me say that I come from a huge NON grace filled background. I've had to learn and am still learning about grace towards others and especially towards myself. But...

I finished Gracenomics, closed the book, re-opened and started on my second run through. But before I did that I sent this text out to some friends...

"Gracenomics a must read!! Super short but super huge. I'm crying from laughing, conviction and just the mere thought we as people could love this way!"

Mike Foster's approach, in my opinion, was right on point! He touched deep matters in a light but penetrating way. So many times I went from cracking up to gripping my chest with either a sense of conviction or deep desire to be that grace giving person. And...wishing that sort of grace had been extended to me.

The written names of God, Jesus and Holy Spirit may not be plastered all over the pages of Gracenomics but if you "know" God then you see Him on absolutely every page of this small but powerful book. Jesus spoke in parables...stories. He spoke the language the people understood. Gracenomics is a book of 'along the way conversation'. Along the way in our personal lives, with others AND at work. It is filled with humor, stories and encouragement that we can and must do better at this Grace thing.

What didn't I like? I wanted more!!!!!! But in all honestly sometimes leaving wanting more is a really good thing.

I, for one, left this book ready to Join The Scandal (chp.5) of Gracenomics!
Definitely the next book for our book club!
