Let the Church Say Amen

Say Amen Series, Book 3

By: Reshonda Tate Billingsley

Narrated by: Janina Edwards

Reverend Simon Jackson has always felt destined to lead and he's done a good job of it, transforming his small Houston church into one of the most respected and renowned in the region. But while the good Reverend's been busy tending his flock, his family's gone astray. His 19-year-old daughter, Rachel, gives new meaning to "baby mama drama." Crazy in love with her son's father, she's wreaking havoc on the man's life, even though he's about to marry another woman. David, Simon's oldest at 27, has been spiraling downward ever since a knee injury ended a promising football career. These days he's seeking solace in drugs - even feeding his habit by stealing church offerings.

Blessedly, 23-year-old Jonathan, a college graduate and the apple of Simon's eye, is poised to take his father's side as associate pastor - or so everyone thinks. Loretta has been a devoted wife to Simon, but she's beginning to realize that enabling him to give more to the church than to his children was her biggest mistake. As things begin to fall apart and secrets are revealed, will Loretta be able to help her husband reunite their tattered family before it's too late?

Very Realistic

Such a true story in a lot of churches. Loved the realness. The narrator was great.

We cant Judge

I truly enjoyed this book.It was well written and well narrated. This book was very enlightening. We mustn't judge noone.The minister was more loving to his church instead of his family.It made them very bitter toward their Dad.
He could see it but He did not want to do anything about it until it was out of control. This is a very great read .It helps you in every day life.
