Ben
What if the one person you loved more than anyone in the world wasn’t who you thought he was? What if he was someone different? Different yet extraordinary.
Kate Kirby has been best friends with Ben for as long as she could remember. He was her beloved companion through childhood, and he was her rock and her strength during adulthood. When she faced tragedy, he comforted her. When she lost her way, he guided her home. Even when she pushed him away, he was never far. Through the ups and downs Kate always knew she could count on him. But what she didn’t know was that there was much more to Ben than what met the eye. Although ordinary by outward appearances and worldly standards, inwardly there was something indescribable about Ben. Something otherworldly. Would Kate ever realize the truth about her best friend? The truth that was staring her right between the eyes, yet she was blind to see.
Journey with Kate as she experiences life and faith with a guardian quite literally by her side, and in the process embark upon your own journey of faith that will simultaneously comfort and challenge you.

I would never have selected this book on my own. It was a book club pick. Right away I figured out that Ben was Jesus. Not my favorite book. A bit too superficial for me.

Just finished this book and thoroughly enjoyed it! Every Christian ( or person searching for relationship with Jesus) will enjoy going on this journey with Kate. I had the same definition of success early in my career and found that I was never truly happy. Although I did not have Ben in my life as a living person, he came into my life spiritually.
It was then, like Kate, I knew I needed to make changes in my life.
Great book by Robyn Brown! I look forward to future books by this talented author!

Wow!!! It was definitely an eye opener. I loved how the book moved thru stages in life and ended with what is promised to us... beautiful eternity with our Lord and Savior.
