5.0 out of 5 stars Encouraging and Enlightening, May 24, 1999
By A Customer
I read this book on the plane going to my son's graduation. I immediately handed him the book and said "this one you will love and encourage you to continue your work with those in need.". I intend to purchase additional copies to give to young men and fathers. This book is an encouragement to all parents who have prayed for their children and have questioned themselves as their children have gone through months and years of rebellion. It also shows that the Lord uses these Children of Rebellion and their strong committments and uses it to perform His Work in His World. I strongly recommend this book to anyone with adventure in his soul and has a passion to walk as Jesus walked and His love for a hurting world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring as Well as Informative!, November 23, 2002
By David R. Bess (Charleston, WV) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This autobiography of Franklin Graham, the son of evangelist Billy Graham, is inspiring as well as informative. Graham gives the reader an insight into what it was like being raised in the shadow of the most famous preacher of the twentieth century. He shares honestly and from the heart.

While by today's standards Graham was not that rebellious of a child, it is still refreshing to see that even the son of Billy Graham had his struggles. Smoking, drinking, and defying authority were three of his greatest vices. He describes his journey from a rebellious son of a minister to a servant of Jesus Christ in his own right.

I admire Franklin Graham for being his own person, rather than trying to become a mere imitation of his father. While struggling for years to find his own, unique place in God's plan, as time passed he did finally discover it. He serves today as the head of "Samaritan's Purse" ministry, a ministry much different than the well-known crusade ministry of his dad.

I recommend this book highly to anyone wanting to learn more about Franklin Graham. I especially recommend it to the children of ministers, who may be struggling to find their own identity in the shadow their father. This work is also a good insight into the personal dynamics of the Graham family. Buy it, read it, and discover more about this rebel who finally found his cause!

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing journey without special consideration!, June 13, 2002
The most extraordinary thing about this book is that you'll see clearly that Franklin did not get where he is because of who his father (Billy Graham) is. You will be intrigued by how his life took the twists and turns it did. His journey will fascinate you. His landing will assure you. There is only one reason possible that he ended up where he has. A great read. A great gift.
