B.J. Weber was an ordinary radical when an encounter with a Trappist monk in the mid-1970s turned his life upside down. Now after 40 years of ministry in New York City, his friends testify to the extraordinary life he’s lived, simply because he made himself available to God. This edition includes stories contributed by B.J.’s mentors, friends, and family. You’ll hear from monks and nuns, NFL & MLB players, Wall Street executives, former interns, and several New York Times bestselling authors. We hope your soul will be encouraged by the ways God was at work through B.J. rescuing orphans, repairing marriages, and pursuing the poor, the lost, and the broken with the good news of Jesus from NYC to places all over the globe.

What an incredible life! This book contains a collection of short anecdotes of people who knew BJ Weber. A man who I've never met but has had an impact on my family from a far. His life was not about what he has done nor who he knew but a clear priority of loving God and others. From his life I am encouraged to be someone who lives authentically, humbly, and with Christ at the center. I am also challenged to be bold in faith in God and faithful to pursue relationships with others.
