[Following is a volunteer review of "...on your way home...Do This" by George Six.]
In this world, there are two categories of people: those who pursue material goals that benefit themselves and those who seek lofty goals that serve society. George Six, the author of this book, is one of those who seek lofty goals. You might be wondering why I believe that. Well, his answer to the question of what he wanted to do the most on his way home demonstrates this. His home is Eden, and the thing he most wanted to do on his way home, was something that would be of benefit to the church.
The book ...on your way home...Do This takes readers on a journey through the life of George Six. This book is divided into seven chapters, each covering a different period in the author's life. The author opens his work by discussing his background, family, siblings, childhood, and Eden. Then he talks about his education, friends, marriage, and work. George Six tells about his son's injury in chapter three, which changed the path and drove him to become a priest, then he goes on to describe the churches he worked in and the events that occurred during his time there.
One of the things I liked about this book is that it not only discusses the writer's biography but also social and church issues such as racism, abortion, and gay/lesbian issues. Another aspect of this book that I loved was the plethora of stories that show that becoming a priest is not as simple as it appears. In this book, you'll see how many times the author was threatened with death, as well as how hard he struggled to achieve what he thought was best for society.
On the other hand, the aspect of this book that I disliked was the author's style; he doesn't transition between topics smoothly, leaving me bewildered while reading. It's good that the author went into such detail about the events that happened to him, but I didn't appreciate how he jumped from theme to theme, which made the book difficult to read. As a result, I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars.
Finally, I'd like to point out that George Six did not live a quiet life because he had big goals that he wanted to achieve. These goals inspired him to keep going in life and established him as a role model for others. Maybe he thinks he failed to achieve his lofty ambitions, but I believe he succeeded because he never gave up. George Six compiled all of his life's lessons and experiences in this book, which is absolutely worth reading. As a result, I recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about priesthood or aspiring to be a priest.
