"This book is a combination of an enjoyable novel and a believable biography - like an excerpt from a Bible character's life. But above all, it's a testimony. And, like every testimony that glorifies Jesus Christ, there is an overcoming power to it."
- Jack Hayford, President
International Church of the Foursquare Gospel

"Marilee's heartbreakingly beautiful, honest account of the ministry and marriage of her parents is a definite must for Christians at all stages of pilgrimage."

"We are used to frank biographies, especially of film stars and entertainers, but this book sets a new record for the evangelical world. The daughter who chronicles this heartbreaking story clearly loves-yes adores-her father. It is a great literary coup."
-Russell T. Hitt, author of Jungle Pilot
