Customer Reviews

Absolutely awesome and life-changing!

This book is so profound! If one is ever in doubt about the power of Christ, this book will end that doubt. I have never read a more powerful book at illustrating the change that accepting Christ can make in someone's life. As I read the book, "Happy Jack" made me cringe at all of the truly horrible things that he did to others. He was the type of person that you wouldn't want your loved-ones near. But, towards the middle-to-end of the book, it was truly awe-inspiring the transformation that took place in him through Christ; and the transformation that he made in others. It gives us hope to know that those who are choosing the wrong path can still be saved. Definitely a book to read!

Born again!

This is an amazing story of the power of Christ to turn a person's life around, no matter how corrupt and stooped in sin. Throughout the book you can see the power of prayer (Happy Jack's mom continually praying for her son's salvation) and also how the Lord uses unexpected events and people to accomplish his will. (The police officer who drove Happy Jack to prison and who's light for Christ shined so bright, Happy Jack took notice and was eventually saved as a result). The book is a powerful story of rebirth in Christ. Highly recommended!
