A book review of "Life, In Spite of Myself

"Life, In Spite of Me" is one of the most inspiring books I have read in a very long time.
The story of Kristen Anderson, the troubles she faced and over came, brought chills to my spine and tears to my eyes.  She took me back to my own childhood and made me wonder how on earth I made it through as I didn't become a christian until my late 30's.  God saw me through without my even knowing it.
This story isn't just about a failed attempted suicide, rather the love and Grace of God, that is there and ready for the taking if we would only accept him
I have recommended this book to my pastors wife and suggest that it be placed in the church library for anyone to read if they are facing times of questioning and wonder.
Kristen has brought me back to where I need to be, even at 43 years of age I had forgotten to let God lead me where HE wants me to go.
Please read this book with an open heart and a willingness to accept and maybe even understand what God can and will do for you.

"I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review"
