This post is my review, which in my understanding, is usually small. Please don't take that as a reflection of Al's work; after reading her book, I have too many thoughts and feelings to share in a book review. Please stay tuned for my reactions to her book.
Wow where to begin. In a word, Al's book is sincere. Honest. Raw. She doesn't hide her true feelings which makes it that much more powerful. I was surprised to find that the book feels like a conversation, not as 'scholarly' as I expected which makes it very approachable and personal. Even though it is small, it is a gold mine densely packed with words of wisdom, hope, optimism, light, encouragement, and love. The first part of the book tells Al's awesome conversion story and the second encourages the reader to really make the most of their relationship with God and their life. Her love for the gospel and for Jesus Christ is infectious. Her light shines through the words into your heart. This book is a now a must in my depression survival kit. This is a 'must read' for everyone. Buy a hard copy, mark it up, but most importantly, feel the love God has for you through her voice and love.
Read it. Just do it. It will bless your life. It has mine.
