Review of Always Before Me
2 posts
[Following is a volunteer review of "Always Before Me" by John Servant.]
Have you ever been in a situation where your faith is being tested? Always Before Me by John Servant is a book that will help every reader strengthen their faith and also believe in the goodwill of man.
The story line revolves around two protagonists, Father Paul and Father Anthony. A priest who wanted only to do good got caught up in an event that became a turning point in his life. Having taken the vow of obedience (vow of poverty, chastity, and obedience), he had learned a long time ago to go wherever God led him. It all began when Blood and his gang killed a cop and his wife. He went for confession, which was led by Father Paul, and had to confess that he had killed the cop and his wife, after which Father Paul gave him a penance and told him to turn himself in to the police. Blood was not willing to turn himself in. Later on, the bodies of the cop and his wife were discovered. Being that it was a cop that was the victim, the police vowed to take the case seriously. They went on with the investigation, which linked Blood to the crime. He was called for questioning, but he denied all the charges brought against him. However, the police learned that Blood had made a confession in a church, which was traced to Father Paul. Will Father Paul break his vow to save himself? What role does Father Anthony have to play in this book? This book has a lot to offer. Just get a copy.
This book kept me indoors all day. I couldn't get enough of this interesting read. There is a lot to learn from this book, especially about faith, and I found it to be both inspiring and educational. Have you ever been in a situation whereby you are wrongly accused and want to give up? This is likened to Father Paul, who stood strong on his faith and belief, which had a huge impact on the life of Father Anthony, who almost gave up. I must commend the author on the way he developed this plot. What happened to these two men of God is not far-fetched from what is happening in society today.
There was nothing to dislike about the book. My favorite character in this book was Matt. I experienced how he revived his faith, though the credits go to Father Anthony, who played a crucial role in reviving his faith. I think that making a movie that goes with this book would be nice in order to strengthen the faith of believers who are going through the same ordeal as Father Paul, Father Anthony, and Matt. I also loved the way Father Paul helped the inmates and wardens.
I would love to rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. While reading, I didn't detect any errors. This shows that it was exceptionally edited. I would love to recommend this book to Christian book readers.
