Honesty. Being real and raw. Living transformed. Letting your lives be an open book. That is what "Convicted" by Jameel McGee and Andrew Collins is all about. These men share about their anger, revenge, corruption, mistrust, and selfishness in the chaotic world they live in. Then they share their humility and transformation.
This is such an inspiring story and shows that anyone can be restored and revived. This is definitely a page turner. It was a quick read for me because I couldn't put it down. I learned a lot about racial tensions from this book. I learned how we are so quick to judge others and label them as guilty when they are in fact innocent, even if they don't act innocent. It was interesting how a good guy with a dream to succeed could lose his sense of integrity by making small indiscretions that led to huge ones.
Forgiveness is a major theme of this book and not because these two men are so tough and strong; but because they are willing to turn from their own ways and live for Christ and His way. A very moving story worth reading.
I received this book from Waterbrook Press for my honest review.
