Rated 5 starsWhat a Ride!
Who does not bring their own checkered past and frustrations to this kind of story? Who has not wondered what God can possibly be up to, in view of the dubious ways he shapes our paths? -- That said, here's my disclaimer: Part of the impact this outstanding book has on me was due to the many ways I relate to the pilgrimage Susan Isaacs relates. But (a corollary disclaimer) I'm confident anyone in our schizoid society who knows...

Rated 5 starsShould Come With A Warning Label.
1. Not for anyone looking for Christian platitudes or easy answers. 2. Will cause sustained periods of uncontrollable laughter.* 3. Reader may not be able to put this one down... ...and if you do, your friends will steal it. Trust me.

Rated 5 starsYou'll LOVE and devour this memoir!
My favorite Memoir of the year--I LOVED IT! Okay, so taking God to marriage counseling? Are you serious? But hey, for years Christians have claimed they felt married to God, so if you are mad at God, doesn't it sound reasonable to take him to counseling with you? Comedy writer and accomplished actress Susan Isaacs answers that question and proves that no true comic can ever be considered shallow! This memoir is anything but...

There are many reasons to love the Apple+ show, Ted Lasso. And one of the most compelling of these (for us anyway) is all the books that show up in it!
