Book Review: "Unstoppable"


I do not think it is possible to explain just how much I enjoyed reading Nick Vujicic’s “Unstoppable.” To call this a book is absolutely an understatement. “Unstoppable” is a powerful message filled with unconditional love, not only for our Lord, but for all of His creations.

Before accepting this message (I use accepting rather here than the word ‘reading’ because this experience was much more than that), I did not know much at all about the author, Nick Vujicic. I knew a man without limbs existed in this world, but until now, I never had the opportunity to hear his story.

As Vujicic tells his tale, I was in complete shock that he could be so happy and fulfilled without arms and legs. His love for God is unchallengeable, and his desire to spread that love throughout the globe is incredibly inspirational. He really gave me a lot to think about as far as my life is concerned.

I know this review is not doing any justice to “Unstoppable,” but I cannot praise it enough. Even if somebody were not interested in hearing Vujicic speak about God, they can still take a lot from his life filled with courage, hope, and strength. I cannot honestly say that I could remain positive if I had been born without limbs. I would feel lost, neglected, and even worthless. Vujicic, however, is able to overcome all of this negative emotions and create a life for himself this is absolutely stunning and beautiful.

Way to go, Nick!

If I had any criticisms with “Unstoppable,” it would be that this book contains a number of stories from different people suffering from a number of different ailments or situations. I felt that these stories, although inspiring, took away from Vujicic’s own message; there were too many for my personal taste. However, this would not stop me from recommending “Unstoppable” to friends and family.

I give Nick Vujicic’s “Unstoppable” 4.5/5 stars.

Please note that I received “Unstoppable” by Nick Vujicic for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group in exchange for an honest review.
