The biography of a young man searching for God. He finds God and pursues God for his lifetime.

Probably my favorite biography I have ever read.

Powerful!!

This is someone who is living the cross (if I may make that statement without irony).

The original title was For This Cross, I'll Kill You. I have been graced with a signed copy. (Woohoo!) One of my heroes.

I think this book came out either when I was still in high school or newly in college. It made waves in the Christian community and really had a message more of grace than anything. The subtitle makes me cringe a bit now - "Christianizing the Stone Age Tribe" - it makes the whole thing sounds like it's all from someone with a huge white savior complex. Maybe could have considered that wording before putting it out there.
