Kevin Coriolan's Reviews > Awake: Doing A World Of Good One Person At A Time

Awake is a good, slim, call-to-action to get off your rear and justly serve your fellow brothers and sisters in need. Noel Brewer Yeatts' tone is altruistic and inspirational. At my time of reading, the book is seven years old, so some of the data is outdated. However, the fact that she has researched statistics shows a willingness to learn how to serve that we all should have. There are many direct connections that she makes to scripture and Christianity. One of my favorite lines in the book is, "Understanding the true meaning of Justice carries responsibility but ultimately leads to hope." Justice means loving the poor, ill, naked, orphaned, widowed, abandoned, and enslaved. So many of us can do so much more; we just need to become awake.
