Editorial Reviews

A debut faith memoir delivers an emphatic and unusual perspective.

In his book, Gonzalez lays out his religious credential right at the outset. In the spring of 1994, while he was a student at City College of San Francisco, he claims he had “a real-life, physical encounter with the being known as the Creator.” The memory of this face-to-face meeting naturally changed the author’s life and filled him with an unshakeable confidence in his own faith —an assurance he’s eager to impart to his readers. “If you have ever wondered if the Creator of the universe exists and if He is even real,” he writes, “I am here to tell you that He is very real and really does exist because I have personally met Him, and it has changed my life.” This account sets the tenor for the rest of the work, in which Gonzalez relates his many subsequent interactions with the Christian God and offers advice and encouragement to readers seeking such dealings themselves. Building on the fervor of that initial encounter, the book presents a series of exhortations and insights into the nature of the Christian experience. The author outlines three basic steps to creating a more direct communication with God—pray regularly, read the Bible, and keep the Creator always in mind—and he elaborates on this program in short, clearly written chapters of easygoing prose filled with plenty of personal ruminations. Some of Gonzalez’s descriptions of his subsequent divine encounters may strike some readers as almost comically trivial—a gate "miraculously opened up for me right before my eyes" during a train trip from Oakland to San Francisco (the author compares the event to the parting of the Red Sea). Occasionally, they’re more baffling (God "allowed" an injury to the hand Gonzalez’s father used to beat his children instead of simply changing the man’s heart and leaving him unharmed). But the author’s call to selfless service will resonate even with readers who may doubt the particulars of its origin story.

A starkly direct but sometimes-puzzling series of Christian reflections and exhortations.
