We Be Big

The truth is, I wanted this book because I am an avid listener of the Rick and Bubba show.  However, once I got the book in, I learned so much about the men behind the show that it became more than just a book I was interested in.  These men are a true example of perseverance and patience (on God's part, mind you.)  As a youth minister, it is hard sometimes to get young people to listen to your own personal story for the one hundredth time, so it was really nice to take them to two celebrities like these men and show them that a true commitment to the cause of Christ can be beneficial in more ways than just a good feeling you get at church.  These men committed to the will of God and it not only made them better people, it gave them opportunities to be successful in the world as well.  This book was an outstanding profile of perseverance and a great example of how God is willing to work in the world, even when sometimes we ignore His constant pleading.  I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone because it is spiritual without becoming preachy and because these two men are good role models in a world that seems to be running out.
