There is Hope and other Lessons Learned by a Christian Cop

by Chris Amos

Life is a series of lessons. For the Christian the goal of each is to guide and encourage the student to become a little more like Jesus. For some those lessons are taught in the office or classroom; for others, they arise in the home; for others still those lessons may be taught on the road while traveling from place to place. For me, many of those lessons have come on the hard and often unforgiving streets of Norfolk, Virginia. Some will bring a smile to your face, while others may bring tears. Some result in great victory, while others appear to end in tragedy and defeat. Some may provide answers, while others may raise questions, but all have a common purpose. Each one, when learned, will lead to a closer walk with Jesus Christ. This book is a collection of those lessons written in hopes that you too may be encouraged in your quest to become more like our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ. God is still, as in times past, using the most unsuspecting people to teach some of His most profound lessons. Join with me now as together we let the lessons begin.

I purchased this book from Amazon to read. All opinions are my own. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 There is Hope by Chris Amos. After reading about a tragic moment on Facebook and doing some further research I learned that this friend of my husband's had written this book. I did not do a lot of research into the kind of person Chris is other than to know he was employed by the Norfolk Police Department where my husband also worked previously. I have read a lot of books some bad, some good, and some really great so why not? After it arrived I read the blurb and thought ok soon. I picked this up this morning and finished it in one day. A compilation of stories of life on the streets as a cop for Norfolk Police Department that will make you think sometimes the only person who can put you in a situation or help you out of a situation is God. Amos did a great job of providing a different outlook on the way one can see the situation.
