(3 stars)

The synopsis of this book is not accurate, it is not a memoir, but an inspirational book built on the themes in the hymn Take My Life. I didn't listen to all of it, as one of the readers didn't appeal to me. And I found it hard to concentrate all of the time. But I did catch some beautiful thoughts and would like to listen to more by this author. Many thanks to the readers.

An EXCELLENT book for the Christian who wants to go all the way with Jesus—holding nothing back from his hand!
