Publisher's summary

When Craig Cooper and Walker Hayes met, Walker was an alcoholic atheist reeling from the backlash of a failed music career. Through their unlikely friendship, Craig’s life demonstrated the love of Christ in a way that shattered Walker’s misconceptions of Christianity, ultimately leading him down the path to a dramatic conversion. The two are now close as brothers, choosing to be next-door neighbors, and ripped out the fence between their homes as a testament to the power of the gospel to break down barriers and unite people together in Christ.

Glad You’re Here helps us discover how building relationships, sacrificing for the good of others, and drawing near in times of need can lead to powerful transformation. Through story and biblical reflections, Glad You’re Here helps listeners see how God works in the everyday lives of those who love him.

Glad you read!

I fell in love first with the song Craig. It became my sons hype song before his basketball games over the past winter. We still play Craig to this day instead of Horse outside after I showed my boys the Hayes do this. I pre-ordered this paperback book then quickly got the audio book so I could listen to it quicker than I could read it. I laughed. I cried. I was so thankful I listened to this. Hearing this exceptional book in Craig and Walkers voice made it all that much better. This is one you won’t just read or listen to once. I am inspired and encouraged. I am thankful for this book and all the stories inside.

Amazing

I am a huge Walker Hayes fan and absolutely love his song Craig so it was a no brainer that I had to get this book when it came out and it did not disappoint! This story between Walker and Craig and their families is a true testament to friendship and how God puts certain people in your life. I enjoyed listening to them tell their story and encourage everyone to go pick up a copy of this book. Note: make sure you have a box of tissues close by, as you will need them!

the best book I have heard ever, joy, tears, hope

I loved it and hearing from Walker and Craig really made it the best. I could feel the emotions, I cried tears of sadness but also of so much joy. im late to being a Christian but since I made that choice my life has changed profoundly. The reference to scripture has had an impact on me helping me to feel closer to God. I praise Jesus daily for the life I have been given and how he grabbed on to me throughout the lowest parts of my life. Thank you Walker and Craig for this book.

Raw, real, honest and inspiring!

Loved listening to this “behind the scenes” look into true biblical friendship and transformation that can only come through Jesus Christ from 2 “regular” guys. Thank you, Walker and Craig, for sharing such a personal story with the world. May God be glorified and others come to a saving knowledge of Him through your words and testimony!

Awesome book!

This book was such a beautiful blessing to me. Thanks for shining His light so bright!

Amazing Book!

I read this book in a day! I love the story of Walker and Craig how they are blended together. How God orchestrated their friendship and all the details of their lives. I love how Craig and Walker are allowing God to use them as a vessel to bring glory to him and bring people. Loser to Jesus. I can relate to so many things in both their stories. I’ve also lost a child and wasn’t able to have anymore. I’m so sorry for your loss. I am continually amazed how God uses everything and is so good. What the enemy uses for evil God will use for good 😊. Thank you for writing this book!

Beautiful, hopeful, redemptive…read it!

I have struggled to find just the right words to put in this review because I feared sounding overly dramatic and insincere. So I will keep it simple…. This story was beautiful, hopeful, and truly refreshed my soul.

In a world of stories that leave you empty, this one leaves you full.

Beautiful story

What an incredible story. I love walker hayes and generally knew his path and story - but this took it to another level. Loved hearing both sides of each point in Walker and Craig’s life, the incredible work of God, and the power of God and His love. Well written book, gentlemen!

Life changing

I truly believe that me coming across this book was a gift from god. I relate to Walker and Laney’s story so closely in my personal life. This book reminded me of the amazing things Jesus can do in our lives if we just trust and believe in him. I think this book is going to change a lot of peoples lives. Craig is such a great example of a true friend. I love the scriptures quoted throughout. I hope to get a paper copy so I can go back and remember some of those.

beautiful testimony

this book was just what I needed to put me back on my path with the Lord
