“Let's Be Honest: Living a Life of Radical, Biblical Integrity” by Jeremy Gove is a book that teaches readers, Christians, the need for living a life that embodies honesty, integrity, and godliness. The book is set on the principles of five concepts: brokenness, accuracy, steadfastness, integrity, and credibility, termed "BASIC" by the author. The author uses these principles, alongside biblical teachings and real-life analogies, to propel readers towards leaving a life of truth.

To help readers gain more insight into each of the concepts, the author begins every chapter with real-life stories that commemorate the idea presented in the chapter. Jeremy emphasizes the need to remain honest at every point in a believer's life, using the “Wicked Bible” story to prove that a moment of dishonesty can lead to massive ruin.

One of the standout aspects of this book for me is how the author employed the vertical connection between man and God as a tool that helps us as humans to strengthen our connections with ourselves. This will help readers to live in faithful dedication to a life of integrity. I also find the amount of research put into this book impressive. The author expanded more on his teachings with references from different sources: journals, articles, books, and stories. This made the book feel more than a faith-based imploration.

“Let's Be Honest: Living a Life of Radical, Biblical Integrity” by Jeremy Gove is one book that I found nothing at all to dislike in. It is well-written and well edited. I found no errors whatsoever in it, and the logical flow of ideas within the book is really admirable. Despite being a book based on biblical teachings, this book offers wisdom and insights that are suitable for every man, regardless of their religious beliefs.

I gladly rate this gem 5 out of 5 stars, for it is an invaluable resource to anyone seeking to live a life of genuine peace. The group study activities included at the end of the book make it suitable for readers of all ages, and I strongly recommend it.
