by

Michael Reagan’s life is much more than just an interesting story. It is a testimony of how Christ allowed him to find healing from many of the issues that confront our culture today, such as sexual abuse, divorce, loneliness, the feeling of rejection, and the belief that God does not care about us.

This book wasn't what I expected it to be. I was expecting more of a book about him finding God and his journey through life. Now don't get me wrong...it did explain how he found God and became the man he is today...however the end of each chapter had a list of points on how to raise your children/teach your children/etc. I almost felt like I was reading a self help book. Since I don't have kids of my own, it didn't really appeal to me. I felt like I didn't really get into the book until the las...more
Good book - insights on the Reagans and how they came to adopt Ron. Ron is a Christian, thus adopted twice. By the Reagans and by Christ. Met Reagan 4 years ago at a political gathering where he was the featured speaker. Excellent speaker. He autographed the book for Shari and myself.

Tough story of a tough life that resulted in a fabulous ending. Graphic at times, but worth the read.
Great book!!! Anyone who has been adopted should read this book.
Thanks, Michael, for showing in book the Godly way to be a husband, father,

Michael and his wife and kids are good family friends of ours--very powerful and sobering testimony
Michael Reagan tells his painful but powerful story of his earthly and heavenly adoption! A more honest telling of ones life struggle and triumph would be hard to find.
There are certain experiences that you go through that make you feel completely alone, and like no one good, decent, or normal could ever possibly understand. I didn't go through all of the same ones that Michael Reagan did, but he writes about the pain and the anguish and the subsequent struggle to relate to God with brutal honesty and openness. That anchoring feeling of "You're not alone, other people have gone through this and survived" is an incredible balm. Another one I cried through.
This is a non fiction/autobiography by the son of former President Ronald Reagan. Mike Reagan is adopted and has a unigue perspective on adoption and being the son of a president.
