Deen Kemsley has written a brave book, one that reveals things many would have kept to themselves. He turns his own life experiences into metaphors for reaching to the heavens for God's love, showing that the way to succeed is not through striving but through giving up striving. This book qualifies as personal scripture and may well become a classic manual for those seeking Christian redemption in their lives.

Excerpt Chapter 5
"I worked alone, moving sprinkler pipes and bucking hay. Although it was exhausting, it was a simple job without any way to do anything spectacular. But in this simple setting, something meaningful happened. I began to treasure the still moments under the open sky with the clouds, the hills, and the breeze. Far from the noise of the basketball gym back home, I began to hear a new voice, a voice too still to hear on the court. It spoke through gentle impressions. Rather than fostering a desire to perform before eager crowds, it quietly testified that I could stop striving so hard - simply moving sprinkler pipes and bucking hay was enough for now."
