This is a wonderful book, written by a wonderful author. Rhinestone Jesus was recommended to me by several blog friends, and after reading about it, I couldn't help but purchase it. I definitely was a "Rhinestone Jesus" type of girl growing up, complete with Jesus shirts, Jesus friends, and Jesus accessories. I didn't have a sparkly rhinestone Jesus pin, but being the good Christian girl was a huge part of my identity growing up.So naturally, after reading a few reviews and some blurbs on the book, I couldn't help but buy it.And wow! Kristen Welch does not disappoint! She has the incredible ability of making her life experiences accessible and relatable to so many people. Furthermore, while she's sharing her family's story, their incredible yeses to God, and how they learned to live out an unsafe, uncertain, and daring faith, she shares it from a point of absolute humility. This book isn't a "hey look at all the things we've done right" type of book. It's definitely more of a "hey look at all the ways we've made mistakes, but look at what God's done with them" type of book. And I loved it!I highly, highly recommend this book. I've recommended it to several friends, and even let one borrow my book. She came back to me saying "It's sooooooo gooooood!" and apparently had trouble putting it down. Sister, I feel you!If you're looking for a well-written, honest, approachable book about how one family learned to deepen their faith and trust God in all the scary yeses, this is your book. But be warned: you'll be challenged. Because as you read through Kristen's story, you'll find yourself thinking, "Hmm...I wonder what God might be asking me to say yes to...." And that, my friends, is scary territory. But remember, God shows up in big ways there, and you'll read about that in this book.Go buy it: now!
