Faith Adventures and Worship Encounters

  A book on Faith Adventures and Worship Encounters by Lucy Loo is out now.
 

Review by Ng Wah Lok
 

Lucy’s songwriting ability is already well documented, having released 6 SAND albums. However, Faith Adventures is Lucy’s first venture into writing. It is a collection of her devotional thoughts, written from her real life experiences and encounter with God. Lucy shares her personal and sometimes intimate stories of her journey in faith and worship.
 

Her devotions challenge people to walk in faith and also capture an accurate perspective of what God expects in our worship. She writes of how God speaks to her, how she obeys and how God turns impossible situations to become a blessing.  Lucy is able to draw lessons from God in her everyday life. Some of her stories are related to her 2 children, her relationship with her husband, where her songs come from or taking the SAND team for a concert. Her stories and lessons in life are very inspiring.
 

Faith Adventures is easy to read. The devotions will encourage you to “jump” in faith and worship God intimately.
 

Review by Pastor Lim Soon Hock
 

Lucy L has done it again…this time with a book, “Faith Adventures”. I must say it’s a really good small book. I get excited just reading her stories of faith, which includes the making of her band, SAND, and the productions of her music albums. Get hold of a copy of the book–it will fire you up. I couldn’t resist sharing a couple of Lucy’s story in my sermon this morning!
