I'm afraid that you lost me at 'preaching' and 'entire sermons.' I'm not a fan of religion-based fiction. I believe I would also be disturbed by how badly the story skips around in time. I'll be passing on this one. Thanks for the honest review!

The book seems to be a Christian novel and I would really love to read it. Timothy's character is quite intriguing. Good review.

I liked Andre. I wanted to learn more about him. However, the flaws of the story needed work. Thanks.

After reading the first two paragraphs of this review, I thought of the Biblical story of Jesus and His Earthly mission. Nonetheless, I think I will skip this one. Thanks for the review!

Yes, I can see how you would. I think the author is trying to show what our mission as Christians is. He just doesn't quite achieve it in my opinion. Thanks for commenting.

If Andre doesn't want to be like his father them he'd have to strive for it. I love the plot of the book. It'd definitely be a good read. Thanks for your review.
