Letters to Troy: Echos of Redemption by David Caringer relates the power of his written testimony that offers readers a poignant view of Jesus’ redemptive power. Offering readers fresh insight into life situations, relationships and revealing God’s greater grace that changes lives, the author writes with candor and enthusiasm as he shares memories of his childhood, adolescence and becoming an adult that will engage readers. Well-written, this book is unique and presents a perspective of an era gone by as the author was born in 1957 and grew up in an America that was much different than today’s modern world. Readers will appreciate his writing that reflects the times, history and story of his life that eventually brought him to the foot of the cross.

At the time of his upbringing, America was a great county, life was different and his family reflected a working blue-collar and involved church family. Eventually relocating to California from the icy temperatures of Chicago, his life story is intriguing, hilarious and sad at times, as he recounts his story of rebellion that led him to look for love in all the wrong places during the 70’s. The term sex, drugs and rock-n-roll was a theme that prevailed during that era that unfortunately left his life in a dark stance for quite some time – until he later came to his senses. He recaptures the redemption of Christ in us in such a way that reflects God’s care, faithfulness, love and transforming power that brings new life.

A highly recommended read as this is a life journey that is not only entertaining, but teaches the eternal love of Christ and the love the Father has for His children. An amazing read and an amazing life.
