Rate this book
Intercepted by Greg MacDonald is an inspiring story of spiritual self-discovery, renewal, and growth for both men and women to gain insight into the Bible's history and scientific accuracy. Nick is a college student who loves riding his motorcycle and hanging out with his friends. He thinks the Bible is just a bunch of made-up stories that cannot be supported or proven. After a fateful decision on a snowy road, he is shown God's power as He personally saves Nick's life. The book is a realistic fictional story that comments on what it means to have faith and reconciles doubt with God's Will. With historical, philosophical, and scientific contexts, Intercepted attempts to explain how believing in God is really the most logical decision you can make in your life. A story of new beginnings, self-awareness, and change, Intercepted shows that spiritual epiphanies can happen at anytime to anyone.

Between his motorcycle and friends, Nick had no use for religion. His fast pace through life is interrupted by an unpredictable crash that sends him plunging over a bridge. His plunge into the icy water is only the first fall of a near death experience that finds his mind being plunged into progressive areas which he had worked to hold at arms length all his life. After his miraculous rescue, a stroke during recovery leads to a terrifying vision that causes him to rethink whether there is more to life than the present.

"Intercepted" was written by the a youth leader to address a glaring weakness in students to truly understand that faith is not blind, it is based on more than feeling and memory verses from the bible. He challenged his students think through why they believed without using scripture verses.

Nick's near death experience is written with acrostic chapter titles to help students have a framework for their belief that are rooted in history, imprint, system, testimonies, origins, resurrection and your own story, so that students can pull information from each area to give an answer for the hope they have.

This would be a great book to lead youth groups through to help them have tools to explain their beliefs to friends by recalling Nick's story.
