Download or read book Jake s Journey written by Evelyn Baughman and published by . This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jakes Journey Book ReviewBy Rev. Roger P. Brown / Murfreesboro, TNJake's Journey is a thoughtfully written story that takes the reader into the harsh realities of suffering while offering a biblical lens to see the redemptive beauty of God actively transforming hurt into hope through Jesus Christ. Written from the perspective of Jake, an aging widower, Korean P.O.W. veteran, and surgeon, Evelyn writes with such empathetic detail that the reader genuinely feels Jake's loss, betrayal, and frustration as his freedom and dignity are forcibly taken away. Jake is the embodiment of a truly selfless hero whose own wounds become a source of healing for others as he shares his testimony of faith in Christ demonstrated through his joy of sacrificial giving.This book challenges the values of a society that responds to caring for the aging by means of isolation and sedation while confronting the ways people become marginalized and robbed of dignity and worth. The message of Jake's Journey is that the most valuable and enduring things in life are found in how well we demonstrate love of God and love of neighbor.In Christ, Roger Brown
