Without knowing a single thing about the Benham brothers I
picked up this book based on the cover caption said: “Facing your fears, dying
to your dreams, and living powerfully.” What I found between the covers I never
expected; I mean the book sounded interesting and all but I had doubts it would
WOW me.
Let me tell you I read the first hundred pages non-stop. The
stories and testimonies of David and Jason contained between the covers are fascinating,
incredibly motivating and extremely inspiring! We all face hard times and most
of us have had our dreams die or fade away but the way Jason and David let the
Lord guide their lives through the good times and the bad is such a valuable
lesson for all Christians today. The lessons they provide in their brief point
boxes throughout the chapters are incredibly wise! Each one of them can be
framed as a motivational poster.
I’ll be honest, my dreams have shifted within the last few
years and I have been really banking on God’s leading to point me in the right
direction in life and although I believe God has led me on the right path, and
continues to lead me, I really would have loved to read this book earlier, be
inspired, and encouraged especially during the transitional periods where life
was full of uncertainty. The Benham brothers show that no matter what stage in
life we are in we can (and should) serve God to our fullest potential and
glorify God knowing that He is in control and works for our good.
What an incredible testimony, definitely a MUST READ.
Incredible story, makes me want to be a better/ harder worker and overall a
better Christ follower.
Thank you Thomas Nelson for blessing me with this book!
