Helpful Score: 2
Both novels, THE LISTENER, and THE GIFTED, by Terri Blackstock will change the way you view people, the church, GOD, and yourself. I highly recommend these books.
I have only read The Listener so far, but found it excellent and very thought provoking and also very inspiring. Terri Blackstock did a magnificent job of portraying what it would be like to hear like God must hear us and it makes me look differently at people. We all have problems and are hurting one way or another whether it be from past or present issues and we all put on a front for others. It's our job as Christians to try to be kind and helpful to everyone, speak to everyone and give them a smile regardless of whether or not they appear to " have it all together". Great job, Terri! I'm looking forward to reading "The Gifted".
Absolutely love this two book combo. It was unexpected but delightful.

This was a good book, a very easy ead, would be a good book for a teenager to read to give them inspiration of life with Jesus.

These 2 books by Terri Blackstock challenge one's Christianity. In the 1st book, how would you respond if you could hear the souls of people? Then what would you do if the gift, after you've learned to use it, is taken away? In the 2nd book, 3 people receive life saving miracles as well as supernatural gifts that only work when the 3 people work together. Suddenly their gifts disappear but the life-saving miracles do not. Both these books challenge the reader to look at people with more than a passing glance or just at outward appearances. Very interesting. A good challenge to any Christian.
Powerful book. Brings to life God's guidance working in us to meet the needs of others.
