Book Reviews of Traveling Light: Releasing the Burdens You Were Never Intended to Bear

Book Review: Awesome Gift!
Summary: 5 Stars

I read "Traveling Light" by Max Lucado after hearing a sermon a priest gave while holding it up, waving it in the air, and exclaiming, "Everyone should read this book"! I got a copy and made myself read just one chapter each morning until I was finished. I did it that way in order to be able to savor the respective message. I was so impressed with it,that upon finishing it in it's entirety, I immediately ordered six more copies as gifts, gave them out, and ordered six more again before Christmas to give them as gifts. I have now heard from my eleventh recipient as to how great it has made her feel! I highly recommend this book for all to read - as it truly shows us how much God REALLY is on our side and how much He loves us, so. It is practical, thought provoking, and endearing in this day of so much negativity! It literally wraps "hugs" around you!!

Summary of Traveling Light: Releasing the Burdens You Were Never Intended to Bear

Weary travelers. You've seen them -- everything they own crammed into their luggage. Staggering through terminals and hotel lobbies with overstuffed suitcases, trunks, duffels, and backpacks.

Backs ache. Feet burn. Eyelids droop.

We've all seen people like that.

At times, we are people like that -- if not with our physical luggage, then at least with our spiritual load.

We all lug loads we were never intended to carry. Fear. Worry. Discontent. No wonder we get so weary. We're worn out from carrying that excess baggage. Wouldn't it be nice to lose some of those bags?

That's the invitation of Max Lucado. With the Twenty-third Psalm as our guide, let's release some of the burdens we were never intended to bear.

Using these verses as a guide, Max Lucado walks us through a helpful inventory of our burdens. May God use this Psalm to remind you to release the burdens you were never meant to bear.


From beloved award-winning author Max Lucado comes Traveling Light, refreshing words wrapped around the biblical passages of the 23rd Psalm to reenergize weary spiritual travelers. In his inimitable, pastoral voice that both soothes and exhorts, Lucado gently unpacks the verses of the psalm while helping readers lay down the burdens of doubt, anxiety, perfectionism, and fear. "You can't enjoy a journey carrying so much stuff," Lucado writes. "Why don't you just drop all that luggage?" Lucado mixes personal transparency with his trademark humor, offering uncomplicated counsel. Change your focus. Make time for rest. Know you are not alone. Be humble. Trust God. It's only when we set down our "luggage" and let God carry it for us, says Lucado, that we are free to share grace, offer comfort, and help lift the load of others. As you read Lucado's words and work through the study questions, you'll find your own load feeling a little lighter. --Cindy Crosby
