Customer Reviews

Non-religious review.

"That's A Keeper" is an excellent book even if you're not a religious person. The author's stories had me saying to myself numerous times, "I've done that (or had it happen to me) too."The religious writings only take up about 1/5th of the book and I just skipped over them at the ends of his short stories (60 in total).

About the joy of catch-and-release bass fishing

That's a Keeper: Reflections on Life from a Bass Fisherman is H. Norman Wright's quiet and thoughtful memoir about the joy of catch-and-release bass fishing, as well as his spiritual reflections on Jesus Christ, who also used fishing and fishermen to weave his teachings about life and faith in God. That's A Keeper is highly recommended for Christian reading lists as a deeply contemplative, keenly insightful, thoughtful and thought-provoking testimony.
