Jesus Is Better than You Imagined

Short Review: I theoretically like memoirs and spiritual biography. I think it is useful to see how God walks through the lives of both famous and unknown Christians. The problem with memoirs is that usually they trace the path of God as if it were as clear in advance as it is in hindsight. And with words that sound wise because the author has had lots of time to think about the situations. (In comparison to most of the rest of us that don't see those great God connections in the midst of daily life.)

That being said, I still think the memoir is worth reading (although not in too large of doses.) This is a good example of a memoir. Merritt is telling his story on his terms and with a real sense that Jesus is better than what we would imagine for ourselves.
