Review of Let's Be Honest
Posted: 29 Jun 2025, 14:33
[Following is a volunteer review of "Let's Be Honest" by Jeremy Gove.]
Reading Jeremy Gove’s Let's Be Honest was both convicting and deeply refreshing. Gove’s unpacking of biblical integrity—emet—challenged me to consider not just what I say, but how I live when no one is watching. His call to radical honesty felt less like a scolding and more like a heartfelt plea for wholeness in a fragmented world.
One insight that stuck with me was the idea that integrity isn’t just about avoiding lies—it’s about alignment: ensuring our beliefs, words, and actions are in harmony. Through practical examples and humble storytelling, Gove showed that honesty is not just a virtue, but a way to freedom. His writing didn’t just inform me—it invited transformation.
As someone striving to live with intentionality and purpose, Let's Be Honest gave me language and direction for how to pursue truth in community, even when it’s uncomfortable. It left me both challenged and encouraged, and I see myself returning to its pages as a guidepost in seasons of decision-making or self-reflection.
