Like the biblical Job, John Ramsey had it all - wealth, social position, a loving family. And like Job, Ramsey was destined for great affliction, as many of the most precious things in his life were cruelly taken from him.

I loved this book! The author had done her homework, the story was true to biblical account. These books always make me want to open the Bible and dig in to the story there.

I hesitated getting this book because I wasn't sure I'd like it. However, once I started listening to it I couldn't stop. The book had a great story line, the character seemed real, and the narration was remarkable! If you like John Grisham's books, I think you'll enjoy this one too.

Reviewed: 09-04-22
All of John Grisham's books are outstanding. I found this one to be excellent. The plot is very good and easy to follow. By the end of the book I was emotionally evolved. I felt like I was a part of the story, the characters were so real they seemed like personal friends. The author did a great job of creating the story, developing the plot, and bringing the characters to life. I couldn't stop listening to it so I could see how it would end but when it ended I was sorry it had. I felt like I was saying goodbye to my friends.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,276
Meet Denver, raised under plantation-style slavery in Louisiana until he escaped the “Man” in the 1960’s by hopping a train. Untrusting, uneducated, and violent, he spends 18 years on the streets of Dallas and Fort Worth. Meet Ron Hall, a self-made millionaire in the world of high-priced deals—an international arts dealer who moves between upscale New York galleries and celebrities. It seems unlikely that these two men would meet under normal circumstances, but when Deborah Hall, Ron's wife, meets Denver, she sees him through God's eyes of compassion.

A man with a painful past. A child with a doubtful future. And a shared journey toward healing for both their hearts... It begins on the shaded town square in a sleepy Southern town. A spirited seven-year-old has a brisk business at her lemonade stand. But the little girl’s pretty yellow dress can’t quite hide the ugly scar on her chest. The stranger understands more about it than he wants to admit. And the beat-up bread truck careening around the corner with its radio blaring is about to change the trajectory of both their lives.

In one of the best available books on the topic, Franklin explains the spiritual power of fasting and offers a deeper understanding of God's plan for fasting and the benefits available to those who participate. Those who seek God through fasting can expect tremendous rewards both for their personal lives and the church. They will see breakthroughs in many areas, such as healing, finances, bondages broken, and children set free.

I have listened to this book several times. The church that I pastor goes on the 21 day fast in January of each year. This book provides teaching, instruction and encouragement during the fast which helps keep us focused. This is a great book.

This is an excellent book written by a woman who never disappoints. The story line was well thought out, well written, and easy to follow. The characters were life like; in fact you feel like your old friends when the book finishes. Listening to this author is like getting a history lesson and a Bible lesson at the same time!
