I really wanted to enjoy this book. Unfortunately I found that much of the theology of the author is very different from my own and that of my church. It wasn’t something I could even finish. I think the premise is nice and I’m sure others that don’t disagree with his theology will likely enjoy it. Overall it just wasn’t for me.

I have read many of Joel Osteen’s books and I love to watch his very inspirational program. All of his books, including this one, are brilliantly written and I find them to be a constant source of strength and comfort.

I always can rely on these type of books. They are very helpful in guidance and faith. It helps that you can open this up and find real motivation within the pages. I really enjoyed the Power of Favor.

Joel Osteen wants to uplift others in his new book. The Power of Favor: The Force That Will Take You Where You Can't Go on Your Own is about trusting God to take you to new heights in your life. If you put your faith in God, trust Him and pray for His favor, miraculous things will happen.
I love the uplifting message in this book. I think anyone can benefit from this book, and I believe that we need a message like this coming out of the quarantine stemming from the onslaught of the Coronavirus. I pray this book helps you as much as it's helping me.

Joel Osteen is a uplifting voice for Christians. This is a book that reminds us we must have hope through the power of God's word. Pastor Osteen quotes scripture and provides many examples of how favor has been bestowed on Christian followers throughout time. I found this book very encouraging as well as a outstanding reference for hope in hard times. Even if you are a Christian who has not had the power of favor in your life you will find this book helpful.
