"The Noticer," by Andy Andrews



Grab your favorite beverage,get into your favorite chair and kick back -- start reading -- you won't want to put this one down for anything....do you like a good story? Do you also want to learn something from what you read - even if it's by accident?

It's about hope, it's about encouraging one another - changing your mindset...planting seeds and having "perspective."

The first story is about a man named "Jones" who meets a twenty-three year old young man who feels betrayed, alone, bitter and angry. He was living under a pier!

Weren't you just a little belligerent in your twenties? Did you have bad things happen to you?


Sometimes all you need is 'a little perspective', said "Jones." He says - you're 'right where you should be' for now.


Who is this Jones guy anyway? Is he the people's version of Aslan in Narnia? Is he a disciple? Or does he just notice things?



I'll want to know what you think - and I know it'll be soon enough. Have you known a "Jones" in your life? Are you a "Jones, " giving new perspective? Are you planting seeds? Did you keep your fork?

The first page is a "grabber" - hey, I am a little hungry here - but I skipped lunch and dinner while I read this one. It's good food for the soul! Here's a short paragraph or two from Andrews' The Noticer...enjoy!

  1. Hi,
    This book sounds like a really good read. You had me whenever he refers to Viktor Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning". This book made a huge impact on my life and helped me discover a personal relationship with God.
