By Phil Madeira
This is a very well-written memoir of grammy winner Phil's experience growing up as a preacher's kid in Barrington. While he does not have good words for everyone, Phil's love and admiration for his father shine throughout the book. He rejects the "evangelical" moniker, but his faith in Jesus is evident and solid. His life took a different path from his family's, but he seems to hold on to the important core of his faith. Phil admits to mistakes (e.g., his involvement in a cult-like community) and personal pain resulting from broken relationships, but his sense of humor and - more importantly - God's grace are there from beginning to end. Very thoughtfully written.
