Book Reviews of Run Baby Run
Book Review: MUST 5 Stars
I know this is an older book,but it is still just as good as when it was written.A testimony is always a great story.it is the story of how GOD Changed his life,and it builds faith. It made me cry,laugh,and a little sad at times.But mostly,i have more faith because of it! Thank You JESUS! That is what Jesus does,he takes what was intended for bad and makes it good-If we let him! and Nicki Cruz Let him! Amen,Amen,Amen! MUST READ!Book Review: Missed Opportunity
Summary: 2 Stars
There was a lot of opportunity by the authors of this book- Nicky Cruz and his partner- to reach out and touch some of the thousands of troubled gang members in this country. Indeed, the chance was there for Cruz to show these lost kids what God's love is truly all about and how they can find salvation through acceptance. But instead, Cruz- apparently under the influence of Pentecostal Brainwashing- goes in a tirade of nonsense such as speaking in tongues (purely theater) and a host of holier than thou condemnation tactics- and in the process loses many kids that would have otherwise been found. I don't fault Cruz for his ministries, he is trying in his own way- but if he would leave the snake handling alone, he would reach a lot more lost souls.Book Review: Not your usual "Ugly Duckling" story!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the kind of book we need to give to our teenagers today. They can relate in the realest way possible. The pressures of peers, drugs, sex, the macho attitude, and lonliness. It tells of a boy and many others who just want someone to love them. It tells of how God uses other people to help these teenagers see that they are truly NOT alone. God loves them, no matter what crimes they've committed, or what kind of darkness is in their heads and hearts. Nicky Cruz shares his life with us in the most open way. He helps you see how his life was transformed from one of gang life to a wonderful life with a wife, children, and a mission to help other who were just like him. I highly recommend it. Even if you don't believe in God or His awesome power, you will still be able to relate to Nicky. I guarantee you'll be rooting for him and will feel joy in his life-changing moments. He is truly a man touched by God.Book Review: Nothing without Jesus
Summary: 5 Stars
People may not be able to change but Jesus can change hearts. Even though many people did not suffer through the same background as Mr. Cruz, but many are just as lost and separated from God. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away, behold all things have become new. 2 Cor 5:17
Book Review: One of the greatest books I have ever read
Summary: 5 Stars
I recommend this book to any reader and nonreader because i am sure they will all enjoy this book. I have just recently finshed reading it (I only wished I had read it earlier)and wanted to know more so next best thing was to read David Wilkerson's book's (the little skinny preacher) that did wonders for Nicky. It is just incredible how the Holy Spirit works wonders through someone else. I do hope Nicky will write another book, (or has he,I like to know)(as I am in Downunder and get second hand news)as I would like to know lots more.
