Reggie

A few years ago I was at a Promise Keepers event, in between sessions Reggie Dabbs, conference master of ceremonies was walking around and we talked for a few minutes. Now there was nothing monumental about that discussion as we just shot the breeze, but Hearing him speak to all of the men, one could only see the Light of God in his life. So when I saw that he had written a book about his story I jumped at the chance to review it.

Right on the cover it says: You can’t change your Past, but you can change your future. What a powerful statement if Christians today would get a hold of that very concept. We are a fallen people but we need to know that we can make a difference for Christ in this world.

The book is mostly stories about Reggie, but to me they were truly engaging. The stories show how Reggie has grown up and also grown in the Lord. Learning that he was adopted at the age of two leads him on his journey. He realized that you cannot change what has happened but you can change what will happen as he leads you through his journey. A powerful speaker too many around the world, the self titled book Reggie is a great read for all, young or old.

I highly recommend this book; it is not a biblical study but has questions that people can work through together. When one truly grabs a hold of the subtitle, “You can’t change your Past, but you can change your future”, the sky is the limit in what you can do in your life for God.
