Publisher's summary

Much of what happens in our lives is not what we planned, not what we expected, and certainly not what we would have chosen.

At a young age, Jaci Velasquez’s singing career rocketed to stardom, and her marriage thrived - then both suddenly crashed. Losing her reputation, her record label, and even some of her most-treasured relationships, Jaci began a long, healing journey from thinking of herself not as a Christian music darling or a broken young woman but as a beloved child of God. Today, her renewed faith carries her through a resurrected career, the adventures of a second marriage, and the ups-and-downs of being a mother of a child who has autism.

When God Rescripts Your Life is Jaci’s exploration of the lessons she’s learned living a story full of mistakes and grace, rejection and contentment, worldly success and spiritual rest. Drawing on lessons from biblical characters such as Aaron, Joseph, and Paul, Jaci reminds us how God loves to rewrite pain and weakness into a glorious tale of redemption. The most difficult parts of life don’t need to be removed; they need to be rescripted.

Beautifully narrated

I have followed Jaci’s career since the very beginning. This book has been one of the best books. I felt her genuinely opening her heart as she narrates her story. It really took me into deep thinking about things in my life that I need to surrender. I loved how she quoted examples from the Bible and applied them to the present. I really loved hearing her heart and how she shared about her personal life throughout the book. I loved the stories about her boys and how her faith in God has kept her on her feet. This book really touched my life. I highly recommend it.

I'm not sure I can finish listening to this

(Edited)

I think she wrote this memoir for women. I had a hard time relating with the dating, pageant, decorating stuff.

I'm at chapter 5 now and I'm seriously thinking of not listening to it any more.

There are some gems, but she fails to reach me most of the time.

Edit: It is well written, well read, and she is funny in a good witty way.

in my opinion the latter part is better. it gets to the meat of things.

Amazing!

The book is great but for those of us listening to a book, this is one of the best ones I’ve heard. So animated!!! I truly felt as though I was in the story. I love how Jaci narrated the story!!! It is a must listen for everyone!!!!!

It was okay

There wasn’t a lot to it. But I think others may enjoy it more than I did. I think I was secretly hoping it’d talk more about her kid with unique needs, since I have one myself. It was good, but not great. Great performance though.
