I enjoyed reading this book.
It is a short, encouraging read.
It challenges you to look at yourself and see what kind of mark you are
leaving. It was interesting to read about
the different ways the people highlighted in the book have put their mark on
the world. There were a couple stories
that gave me ideas, if not something new, something that I could support.
One of my favorite sections of the book was about Shaun King
the founder of HopeMob. HopeMob gets
individual stories and needs out to the public so people can lend a helping
hand. Another of my favorites was about
Caitlin Crosby and the Giving Keys. The
Giving Keys is a jewelry line that has an encouraging word printed on it. Once you buy a piece of jewelry though, you
don’t keep it forever – you give it away to someone who needs that word of
encouragement. The line employs homeless
people who are trying to make it in the world.
In addition to reading about how others are making a mark,
the Book of Mark is interspersed between the pages of the individual
stories. All in all, an encouraging,
challenging, fun read.
