Honest and Transformative Read
Really enjoyed this book by Becket Cook. I found him honest and vulnerable and shared deep truths of his life. He has such a genuine love for Jesus over everything now and it is inspiring.

Great read
I really enjoyed reading this book. I'd highly recommend it! It's a quick read being less than 200 pages. I'd love to read another book by this author. The first part of the book is a short biography. The second half is more a Christian living style with illustrations from the bible. His joy and gratefulness to God was contagious, he made me look at myself and my walk with God. I can get complacent and just go through the motions, where's my daily, joy, love and gratefulness towards Jesus and what He's done to rescue me. The illustrations he used from the bible and what he drew out of them really spoke to me and just remembering to keep myself accountable and questioning what am I hanging on to, what am I settling for instead of looking to God? He used the bible as his plumb line and doesn't shy away from the truth, really challenged me and I found it very helpful in trying to navigate this current world with the often intolerance of biblical views.
