En sand beretning om en mands rejse fra ubeskrivelige smertelige minder til ufattelig nådeJosh McDowell er en af verdens mest kendte evangelister. Men hans historie begynder med en lille dreng på en gård ... som ikke troede på Gud.Det siges, at barndommen er den smukkeste af livets årstider. Og sådan bør det være. Men det var ikke sandt for Josh McDowell. Josh voksede op i en familie, der boede på en gård, hvor Josh og de andre søskende arbejdede meget. Hans far var alkoholiker, og ofte meget stærkt beruset og voldelig, og viste ham ikke kærlighed og satte kun pris på ham som en medhjælper på gården. Han gennemlevede også flere års smerteligt seksuelt misbrug. Joshs mor elskede ham, men kunne ikke redde ham, og midt i en situation, som intet barn burde være udsat for, skreg Josh til Gud om hjælp, men Gud virkede tavs. Derfor mente Josh, at Gud ikke hørte på ham – eller at han måske slet ikke fandtes. Da Joshs mor døde, flyttede han hurtigt hjemmefra og satte sig for at få sig en uddannelse. På uddannelsesstedet støder han på en gruppe kristne, og i den forbindelse bliver han udfordret til at bevise, at Kristus ikke opstod fra de døde. Han griber det meget videnskabeligt an og tager rundt til forskellige lærde mennesker rundt om ved læreanstalter i Europa, men jo flere oplysninger han får og jo flere skrifter han studerer, desto mere kommer han til den konklusion, at Kristus rent faktisk stod op fra de døde.Hvordan går det til, at en dreng overvinder så megen modgang og bliver en af de mest indflydelsesrige evangelister for Kristus, verden nogensinde har kendt?Dette er Josh McDowells historie. For første gang afslører Josh hele den dramatiske åndelige forvandling, der skete, da han så sin fortid i øjnene og lagde alt fuldstændig i Guds hænder. Det er en historie om at overvinde skam, sorg og fortvivlelse og tage imod ægte kærlighed for første gang. Det er en beretning om Guds nåde: Når det værste, livet har at byde på, sker, kan man komme ud på den anden side med en tro, der er hel, fri – og uforfærdet.
