I found this book very inspirational to my Christian walk. The teenage boy in this story becomes a powerful witness for God, rising above criticism from friends and fear of rejection. It left a lasting impression on me about not judging others by the way they look or act, because they may be hurting and need help, but can't or won't ask for it. This book gave me the desire to be that sort of Christian who witnesses to others. Everyone who reads this will enjoy the writing, characters and plot, and want to pass it along to all the Christian teenagers and young adults that they know.
This book was amazing. It made me grow in the Lord by helping me realize that i don't witness enough. We have opportunities every day and we don't use them. I would recommend this book to anyone, even if they don't believe in the Lord. This is a truely amazing novel, by a truely amazing author.
Review by Jill WilliamsonJake Sheffield has a weird dream that ends with a strange word that he felt like was from God. That's totally crazy, and he brushes it off like it was nothing. Until he gets to school.He starts hearing things. Hearing people speak to him when they aren't' moving their mouths. He's so freaked out that he ditches school and meets with his youth pastor, who doesn't believe him until it happens again and Jake tells him what he heard. His youth pastor's heart's deepest need. Together, Jake and his youth pastor figure out that God has given Jake a gift. And although Jake is terrified, he learns to use it, and God does something amazing.This book is so neat! It's not a new book, by far, but it's a really powerful story. I loved the challenge the book left me with--the reality check, if you will. This is a book that will entertain you and shake up your faith: two great combinations. And it's my understanding that 100% of the author's profits on this book go to Samaritan's Purse, so that's pretty cool too. Highly recommended!
I have been using this book for many years in my youth ministry. I have all of my student leaders read the book so that they have an understanding that being a student leader is more than just leading games, but that they need to start looking what is below the surface of their peers. It really does make them think more about the students they come into contact with everyday and what possibly may be going on that the student keeps hidden.
