The Blueprint

A Plan for Living Above Life's Storms

De: Kirk Franklin

Narrado por: Dion Graham

Kirk Franklin’s life was hardly built on a firm foundation. His father abandoned the family. His mother also abandoned Kirk, and constantly told him he was an unwanted child. He was adopted by his 64-year-old Aunt Gertrude at the age of four. His sister became a crack addict. He never saw a black man who was faithful in marriage. Without a blueprint, he struggled mightily yet managed to triumph even more mightily, dedicating his life to helping others find hope during hardship.

With The Blueprint, he provides an inspiring blend of God and grit to deliver real-world words of wisdom on provocative topics including:

• The true definition of manhood
• Deadbeat dads, divorce, and other sources of despair in family life
• Why faith that only takes place in a church is dead
• The consequences of sex and the responsibilities of parenthood
• His own identity as a son, father, husband, singer, and African-American
• What it means to be a “Christian moderate with swag” in the 21st century

Reseñas de la Crítica

"One of the biggest superstars in gospel....Franklin revolutionized gospel with his hip, contemporary sound." ( Jet)

"Once again, Kirk Franklin takes the church beyond the traditional, transitioning his life's experiences into life lessons. Clearly there is more to this man than great music. You will feel the beat of his heart and faith." (T. D. Jakes)

Floored by his candid look into his life as he explains how everyone has a blueprint to follow that was designed before your existence. This is intriguing, thought provoking and educational. The delivery is good as well. I suggest you add this to your cart.

This book touches on all of the things that we face daily and show us how to work through them one at a time. I'm listening to it a second time within a week of the first reading.
