I usually like Gene Edwards, he has great insights and perspectives. This book is a real home run. It puts personality into the life of John the baptizer.
A short dramatization of John the Baptist's life and how he had to overcome so many emotions and feelings surrounding his ministry and his life with Jesus. The author closes by pointing out how much we have in common with John and how we also need to deal with those emotions and feelings.
I had high hopes for this book. I thought it began decent but then it began to jump around and did not transition well. So the message sometimes got lost. Sadly I feel it needs some work. But the premise is good and the information was good.
Very inspirational - facing the future without answers can be difficult and in this short book the author focuses on trusting what we know of God instead of focusing on what we do not know.
Again, a painfully good book by this author. I shed many tears reading this one.
Amateurish writing and no substance. Disappointing read.
