Publisher's summary

As in his book Transformed, Lance Mosher takes you on an unforgettable journey that will challenge and inspire you.

Ever since his mother’s death, 17-year-old Brandon Bason has been stuck in the shadow of an abusive stepfather. After a deadly tragedy strikes again, Brandon struggles to contain his anger at the hand he’s been dealt, rejecting any notion of a God who cares about him. Suspended from school only weeks before graduation, Brandon stands at a crossroads. Then, unexpectedly, he receives an old cigar box that offers clues to his real father.

With nothing more to guide him than a well-loved road map to the Grand Canyon and an old, tattered Bible, Brandon embarks on the adventure of a lifetime - but not before roping his friend in for the ride. Along the way, they meet a good Samaritan with whom they form an unlikely friendship and explore life’s big questions. But just when things are looking up, Brandon discovers that what he left behind is much harder to run from than he thought.

Join Brandon on his raw yet touching coming-of-age journey. As he searches for the family he never knew he had, will he also find the faith he desperately needs?

Excellent

My whole family loved this book. It was an excellent story of adventure and of God's love for us.

Gripping

This journey kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the whole book. It is a good clean Christian novel that had many things that related to my own childhood. I also greatly enjoyed the humor laced throughout the story! I hope there is a follow up book because the ending left me with more questions and a desire to know how all that worked out!!!

I suggest this title

Very neat story with interesting facts. I hadn’t thought about some of those ideas yet.

Great Meaning, Fantastic Story, Fantastic Message!

The book Searching for Brandon Bason was very good! It was the type of book that really puts you there in the place of Brandon and the other characters. The author did a fantastic job with description of location. The overall message of the book was great. Fantastic read! I would recommend it to anyone. Specifically anyone considering Christianity but is uncertain about it. I would also recommend it to Christians as well.

Engaging

As I was listening to this book, I had to keep reminding myself that it was fiction. Having been to some of the places featured, and knowing people like the characters in the book, it felt very real. Not only is the story engaging, but apologetic material is presented in this book in a way I’ve never seen it before: in real life. Other narrative apologetics books always seem to mold the story around the message, but Lance has woven the purpose into the story in a very organic way.

A great coming of age story

My family enjoyed this audio presentation of Searching for Brandon Bason on our road trip. It opened up a lot of conversations with my kids about how our actions can positively or negatively effect others. This will be replayed in the future.

Captivating story

Lance’s story was very easy to get into. My children also enjoyed listening along! I would recommend this book to anyone!

Loved this book!

Searching for Brandon Bason is a wonderful example of how Christ searches for us by drawing us in to search for Him. That journey looks different for everyone but the truth found within scripture is the common denominator and when we seek the truth we inevitably find it. The author uses scripture to guide both the characters and the reader to the logical conclusions of who Jesus is and how to accept Gods plan for salvation. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is seeking God and recommend Lance Mosher’s other books as well.

Definitely worth the read!

Brandon’s story is heartfelt and compelling. The characters are so real that you’ll feel like you know them right from the beginning. I guarantee that you will be able to find yourself in the characters at one point or another. If you’ve ever wondered about God or the Bible, or if you’re just looking for the next compelling book to read, you will not be disappointed with this one.

Jake Hunsbusher does a wonderful job with the performance in this audiobook. You’ll feel like you’re sitting right next to the characters the whole time.
