I was touched by his honesty and authenticity - especially when he shares the Gospel while sharing his dad’s favorite Bible verses. You will be blessed by reading this little book.
I was captured from the first paragraph. I could feel the emotions and true life experiences as the story progressed. I understand the emotional and spiritual growth that took place within both father and son. I love the way God worked in their lives in a slow process. God used His wisdom to help bath father and son to overcome their own additions ,fears and demons in perfect timing. He also led them and helped them to find great fellowship with other Christians. This is a great secret , once you know Jesus as savior, it is most important to get grounded in Christ, through other Christians,Bible study and church. God is good. Great testimonye.
