About this listen

A painfully honest story of human weakness and God's unending forgiveness.

Thirteen years ago, amidst scandal, sin, and shattered lives, Michael English fell from the pinnacle of the Christian music world. In 1994, newspapers around the world blared the headline, "Gospel Singer Named Artist of the Year Turns in His Awards After Confirming He Had an Affair with a Fellow Married Singer." From 1994 to 2002 Michael English's life went from bad to worse. Public shame, divorce, broken relationships, drug addiction, even homelessness. But in 2002, God reached out and rescued Michael from himself. Today Michael is whole again, and in this book he tells his story of redemption.

Beautiful, Honest Story

I was a big fan of Michael English in the 90's - "Hope" was my first Christian CD. I did not know the details of Michael's fall from the contemporary Christian music scene - but I happened to find this book on the day it was released and was excited to hear about the decades when Michael was away from music. What a refreshing, honest read from a genre that is often painted with rainbows and roses! These are the gritty, difficult stories we need to share with the world - these are the life stories that give us hope when we hit bottom in our life and in our faith. As a former addict, I could relate to so much of what Michael detailed in his book. This is an honest account of how easily we can fall from faith - how addiction can take us hostage - and how God can restore our lives. This book gave me great hope of finding my way back to God's amazing grace.

I have always been a HUGE fan of Michael English. His story was honest and poignant. Made me love him even more.

The way the narrator spoke and where he inserted pauses and breaks between thoughts/sentences.
