 Living Water October 30, 2008
After reading Brother Yun's other book called Heavenly Man you know this book Living Water is real. Not just theory but, actual living experiences. I would say if you had enough money for a meal or the book buy the book.
Great book for daily devotions October 15, 2008
The stories are short and insightful. Some cut a bit deep in how we think here in the States, but are good checks for our every day assumptions. I like the format of the short stories/devotional. I prefer stories with a point rather than just short sermons. These are stories with a point and some explanation and scripture to back up his take on the events.
Read his books it will change you. September 15, 2008

Read his books, if you live in America we don't know what it means to follow Jesus as the Chinese Christians do. We may think we have died to ourself for Him but we need to see others who have suffered for Christ and we can forget our own struggles. The Heavenly Man changed my life and his new book, Living Water is awesome. I am following God and on fire for Him and live for Him completely and would give my life for Jesus and this still put new insight in what God does when we trust Him completely. We don't know what suffering and giving our lives to Jesus is in America. These books will make you stop and think next time you think you are hurting or suffer in life. He shows in, The Heavenly Man, the miracles God does when you put your whole self out there for Him. And the, Living Water, will help you have a closer walk with God.
 An Intriguing Voice Returns from the East to Inspire and Prophetically Critique the West September 13, 2008
Brother Yun is an intriguing religious voice in this new millennium. His roots are deep in 20th-century evangelical missionary work in China and for most of his life he had preached a gospel aimed at traditional 20th-century evangelical goals of winning souls in all lands.
For more than a decade, though, he has lived in exile in Europe (his home base is in Germany now) and his message to Westerners really is an intriguing call to grassroots spiritual action. That part of his message is perfectly in tune with emerging voices like Phyllis Tickle, Brian McLaren, Tony Campolo, Rob Bell and others. In that particular theme he preaches, it's as though his own ministry is leaping forward from a fairly traditional message to become a new prophetic voice in this era of turbulent change in Western Christianity.
It's fascinating to encounter a fully mature Asian Christian returning to evangelize -- and in some cases to criticize -- some of the movements that, a century ago, helped to seed his own church in China.
His earlier book "The Heavenly Man: The Remarkable True Story of Chinese Christian Brother Yun" was a best seller with dramatic tales of life under persecution in China. "Living Water" is a fresh inspirational look at the road ahead.
Change your life... September 10, 2008

A lot of the time when I read inspirational books I am unsure if the author is truly sincere, or if they are just writing what sells. With this book I had no doubts! Brother Yun is a true follower of Jesus. Because of his faith he has faced persecution, and yet he has stayed strong. Who better to tell us how to grow?
Shares pieces of brother Yun's life and the trials he has faced serving as a pastor in China.
I love how he believes in becoming a "new wineskin", turning from traditional religious rituals, and truly following Jesus.
Though brother Yun and I come from very different places and very different circumstances, we have a lot in common. Some of this book felt as if I had written it, I shared so many of brother Yun's views.
One of my two current favorite books.
This book can change your life, if you will only let it.
