Another book PBS cant have back! I give this book a 7. I love real life stories and his life is so real AMERICAN and real CHRISTIAN too! He doesnt hide all his flaws in this book and what that does is make it real and gives men and boys a role model that you dont have to be perfect to be a Christian man, just one that keeps serving God anyway. Why? Because God is good, and thats good enough for any of us, man or woman. Mr. Norris, for me, embodies the scripture that says...Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. He has known pain and suffering and failure but he knows the key to success is with Christ and he shows that he has lived a delightful and pretty cool life because of his faith.
This book shows a typical young boy, into a strong young man, into a humble and genuine God-loving and God-fearing soul! He is right, you dont have to be perfect to serve God, just willing to see God as what He is...AWESOME, LOVING, and most GRACIOUS!Mr. Norris isnt perfect and thats whats so endearing about him. God bless him and his family today, and in heaven.
I recommend that someone get this book back into the system. My copy is going to my family!The only thing Id change is the last chapter about a movie he made was not really necessary, otherwise Good job Mr.Norris.
