gripping
I don't know what to say, other than - this story has the ring of authenticity. I haven't checked out his facts - and frankly, I picked up his book with a good bit of healthy skepticism. So many people have attempted to make a quick buck off of the spiritual gullibility of others. But based on my understanding of Scripture and my own internal "truth meter," I walked away from this book ...

Refreshingly Sensitive and Real
This book goes to places in the heart where other resources have not dared to go. The short but packed readings shed light on the real feelings and often unstated questions of those of us who love and care for someone who struggles with depression or mental illness.

Hope, determination and god's blessings
I read this book in which I had briefly heard the story of Dr. Ben Carson and was amazed at all of his accomplishments. This book was very inspiring and should be recommended reading for all youths and even adults to show them that their dreams can come true. Dr. Carson's story has really helped to inspire me for when times start getting tough that I should look to god for guidance.

The overarching theme of the book is that each of us as individuals make a difference in the lives of those around us and that the results of our actions (or inaction) has a lasting impact on the larger world. Because of his ...

One reading after another, I found myself saying, "Yes, that's how I feel," or "That has happened to me too." I felt understood and also challenged and encouraged. Taking care of myself physically, emotionally, and spiritually is important even in the middle of the draining and unpredictable situations involved in loving someone who abuses drugs or alcohol. Finding the end of my abilities in the ...

A Regular Guy With an Extrodinary Life!
It was refreshing to read of Franklin's very normal childhood, including his candid discription of his rebellion, confusion and loneliness. Balancing that with a clear portrayal of his parent's love and consistant acceptance of him, even while not the model son, made his story come across as every bit sincere. Amazingly, in spite of all his rebellion, the pages of this book clearly show that ...

God Won't Let You Go...
... that's the overwhelming lesson Cec Murphey wants us to learn. No matter how far we think we've fallen away from God, Murphey beautifully illustrates that God relentlessly pursues us with his love, forgiveness and grace. The book is simply written yet profoundly deep. In it, Murphey looks at the lives of Jesus' disciples, and writes about his own life with candor that will challenge the ...
