Well-written, well-documented and honest. Bonnke's autobiography details his extraordinary ministry from the conversion of his grandfather (yes, it started then, unless you trace it back to Calvary) to his recent mega-evangelical campaigns in Africa. Born in an area since ethnically cleansed, raised in a concentration camp, overlooked—maybe even rejected—by his own family and nation, Bonnke details the trials and triumphs of his life. The road was neither straight nor easy, but Bonnke stuck to i

Taking into account just raw numbers, Reinhard Bonnke is probably the most successful evangelist of our life-time. Reading this book gives us an engrossing overview of his remarkable life.

One of the best .. if not the best book that I've read in a long time. This book will certainly build your faith in God. It will encourage you to depend on him in ALL situations and WAIT on him to move! A must read for anyone growing in their relationship with the Lord. It has actually been a few months since I've read it and am ready to read it again! Enjoy and let me know how you like it..
What a book! Biographical + godly . Challenged me in so many ways. It's inspiring to read Bonnke journey especially how it wasn't smooth sailing and even had opposition from his preacher dad. In some ways the story of how from humble beginnings to a giant MNC seems similar to a rags to riches story but this time it's a person winning almost 60 million people to Christ!
Growing up in South Africa, I was excited to read about the crusade in Cape Town. My husband was a volunteer at that crusade. This autobiography reminds me that Jesus still heals today. We had the privilege of meeting Reinhard Bonnke this year in person and had our book signed. Great book, great testimonies, God is good!
Outstanding book! This is the very inspiring life story of famous evangelist Reinhard Bonnke - from his childhood growing up in war-torn Germany to amazing stories of what God did in the lives of people all throughout Africa through his ministry. Loved it!!
Quoting Mr. Bonnke himself "this book will blow you off your sofa". It is as life changing book. Inspiring as it is entertaining. A lesson in faith and in history that you will never see in any other book. I made this book a most read for ALL of my family.
This book is incredibly inspiring. Knowing where God has taken him and the amazing ministry he has built, makes reading about his "small beginnings" totally encouraging. The last chapter was my favorite. Loved this book
Although I knew a bit about Bonnke, I really didn't know much. His voice is genuine and this turned into a far better read than I had expected.
Wow. Such an awesome inspiration. This is a larger book and looks a bit intimidating, but could not put it down.
Highly recommend.
Highly recommend.
Bonnke passion in love of Jesus and how he stayed faithful to God's plan for him is an amazing read.
Amazing story of how God uses a life yielded to Him! What an adventure, what peace what meaning!
Bonnke's clarity about his life and the lessons he has learned is refreshing.
