Waking Up: How I Found My Faith By Losing It

Dekker gives a quick overview of a recent revelation in his relationship with God. Sort of like a mini autobiography. The message is an important one. This would not be an easy piece to write, but it feels unpolished.

What I liked:
- The message that we are loved passionately and unconditionally by God.
- That the peace and joy God offers does not equal fame and fortune here in this world.
- Dekker's honesty as well as his willingness to think outside his known world to find a deeper truth about God.

What I didn't like:
- This piece feels like it was not edited. I think it would have been more powerful as a pure testimonial rather than asking the reader if he or she can relate periodically. Further, the flow I've come to expect from Dekker was missing.

The message is what makes this book. If Dekker had polished this a little more and let his testimony do the talking for him, this would have earned five stars. For the price (free) it's an excellent value.
