An Awesome Book

This was an incredible and inspiring book. Some of the stories in here you will never forget. You'll hear of how God can make huge miracles out of missed flights, out of caring for your enemy, and many other things. You'll realize that in all situations there can be many blessings and many opportunities if you're open to it. Every day, we pass up so many chances to help others and to share the gospel with them. Have you ever seen a hitchhiker on the road and justkept going? Or kept walking past a crying person in the airport? Have you ever seen a fellow Christian go astray but were afraid to say anything? The people in this book don't pass up those opportunities, and their stories will amaze you. You will be astounded at the courage and the love displayed by the people in the book. It's a very powerful book and I strongly recommend it for anyone and everyone. Being more in touch with God's will for our lives is something we all need.

For those who need perspective

Reading this book put so many things about life in perspective for me. We all have our comfort zones and to read of some of the experiences of Franklin Graham and many of the other Samaritan's Purse workers and volunteers made me realize how selfish we really are. This is a glimpse of how things are outside this comfortable country. If everyone of us would just give a little more of ourselves,like the persons in this book, the world really would be a better place. All of us say that we will do whatever we can to make the world a better place and than we leave it for someone else to do. All talk and no do! Reading this helped me know that even the most unlikely people are chosen and can do God's work. We should all answer our calls from God. I gained personal strength from some of the stories in this book. The most important message here is to live day to day with God in your life. We must depend on Him every minute of every day and stay "in touch" with Him every second. Our lives will be much more rewarding! Thanks Mr. Graham for the fine work and effort put forth in this printing.

Wow! The true life examples will knock your socks off!

Franklin's writing style is simple and to the point. Rather than clever writing, he uses examples of real life people "on overdrive" for God that have made and are making tremendous impacts for the Kingdom. An inspring book for anyone asking "Is this all there is to Christianity?".

REAL Lives God Uses! What an EXAMPLE for us!

This book was easy reading, each chapter being about someone different. It was an adventure as Franklin described each story! I am not a big reader, but this book was awesome! I read it faster than any small paper back book I've read and was blessed and encouraged and moved to step out and be used by God! Franklin is AWESOME! I felt like I got to know him and his family and friends in a personal way... I've seen him at Harvest in Riverside also!

A book that can't be put down until it's finished.

A true life drama of Franklin Graham's life as a chistian sodier. It will make you laugh and cry, as he takes you on an adventure in dangerous places. I felt as if I was with him in every chapter. If you are a non-christian, this book will bring your Life in Sync With God.
