The Comeback: It’s Not Too Late and You’re Never Too Far by Louie Giglio Book Review




In The Comeback, Louie Giglio explored how to have a comeback from setbacks from life. We have all fallen down and faced hardships and encountered disappointments. In this book, he walks readers how God still has great plans for our lives and we can have a comeback! Throughout the book, he shared stories from his life, other people lives, and Biblical stories. Some of the stories included: Noah, Moses, Joseph, Jesus, Peter, and much more. 




One of Louie Giglio’s stories was about a Passion conference in 2003. There was a massive storm and the venue was outside. They prayed that that the rain and storm would stop. It continued while they prayed and the storm didn’t stop until 5 p.m. the day of the conference. They still had twenty-three thousand people show up to worship God. A couple thousands of people didn’t even of making the event and they ended up running short of their financial goal – a hundred thousand dollars short. The following Saturday, they attended a wedding and some guy collected money around the room and they were able to make up the money exactly. They also suffered another fall and they needed another seventy-five thousand dollars to make their operating expenses. A friend from another city randomly called him and found a check that was supposed to arrive three weeks ago and it just resurfaced. It amazing covered the whole amount! Their prayers were answered!




I would recommend this life changing book to anyone who is looking for a comeback and they are ready to live again. This book is for people who have faced a dead marriage and relationship, suffering financially hardship, overworked and underpaid at your job, unhappy with how your life is going, and struggling with an addiction. You can have a comeback story from whatever life has thrown you. I especially love how real Louie Giglio was in looking at Lazarus story and how we all wonder the question as to why did God make him sick in the first place. And the answer scriptures tells us in John 11:4 that it is for His glory. Louie reminded us that Lazarus still eventually died and the greatest comeback of our lives will be when we are raised up with Christ and Christ’s power freed us from death and our sins. This is an amazing book about finding the strength and relying on God and being ready for the greatest comeback that Jesus wants to give you!
