Review of Firstborn Daddyman
Frank Bailey's nonfiction book, Firstborn Daddyman, takes you through the author's life and experiences, showing the reader all of the major events that occurred in his life. It is a novel that focuses on demonstrating how God may assist you in changing. Despite the author's difficult start, this book demonstrates that God was able to convert his life into one of responsibility. It includes several plot twists, and the writer was able to convey all of his encounters in simple terms across the book's pages. This is a triumphant personal story. The war on crime and drugs was not conquered in a single day, but over time.
As the eldest in his family, the author recalls his family being continually on the go when he was a child, and as a byproduct, he had to attend many schools. But one thing is certain. His mother, as well as other members of his family, adored him. His father was largely absent from his social life, so he grew up surrounded by his loving mother and three lovely sisters. Women taught him a lot of interesting things, including what they didn't like in men. The intense sensations of peer influence and recreational drugs first hit him during his adolescent years. Despite the fact that he ended up peddling drugs, his mother sheltered him from the notorious gangs in his area. The author organized the chapters chronologically, beginning with his childhood, and thoroughly explained how everything happened in his life, so I understood everything.
This is a story about a man who believed he had his life all figured out, only to find himself on the verge of death and devastation. He ultimately gave everything to God at this moment, and his life began to change dramatically. This transition, however, did not occur overnight. It needed the author's prior experiences and the support of many others for him to accept a higher calling. He also had to practice the discipline of praying and studying the Bible to communicate with God. As a result, one sees that God can communicate with humans in a variety of ways.
What I loved best about the book was how frank the author was about his personal weaknesses and low points. He was indeed able to thank everyone who helped him on his transformational path. They were always by his side, so I'm glad he told the tale about them. This emphasized the importance of being surrounded by compassionate and tolerant individuals when undergoing transition.
The only aspect of this book that the author should take into account is the fact that non-Christians may be put off by the usage of the term "Christ" in various places in the book. This isn't required because the main purpose of the book is still followed. Apart from that, I saw no flaws in this book.
I rate this book four out of four stars since it was well-edited and also because the language used was appropriate. The book was simple to read and remember, and there were no foul phrases or graphic situations.
I recommend this book to anybody who believes in religion and in transformation, as well as anyone who feels adrift, without a purpose, or who believes they will never be forgiven for what they may have done over the years.
