Matthew Paul Turner posted this review on his blog:
I met Tom Davis in
Atlanta this past July. He’s a great guy! Gracious and kind. And he’s
an extremely articular speakers. As the current CEO of Children’s HopeChest, Tom sees a lot of suffering all around the world. In his new book: Red Letters: Living A Faith That Bleeds (Click here to buy at Amazon.com),
the stories that he has lived come alive. I think this book is a
fantastic read, especially the stories and the parts about the trials
that all of us experience as we learn how to leave selfishness behind
and follow Jesus. Davis’ conviction and passion is moving throughout,
but what I love about this book is that he doesn’t leave a reader
feeling helpless or defeated. He empowers the reader! Red Letters
offers everyone–whether you’re rich or a poor or somewhere in
between–a way to help the need that is all over the world. The stories
that Tom shares come from the many journeys that he’s taken overseas to
places in Russia and Africa. His words are eye opening and at time
gripping. Though there’s no mincing of words about the pain and
suffering that he has seen, Tom also lets you see the hope that can
happen in a person’s life when he or she becomes the "hands and feet"
of Jesus in the world around us.
