Summary: Soldiers for Christ!
Comment: If this book doesn't compell you to get off your pew and be a "Soldier for Jesus Christ", I don't know which one will. (Other than the Holy Bible, of course.) It is an unbelievable collection of stories of men and women that have clearly "fixed their eyes on Jesus" and have perservered with the strength and determination of God. I could only read a few stories at a time. I'd sit in amazement and pray that the Lord would create in me that type of passion and courage for Him. I want to be counted in that number! I thank DC Talk for publishing that book. I will give that book away for Christmas presents - to both Christians and unbelievers. Awesome!

Summary: Interesting, but not as powerful as Volume 1
Comment: This second Jesus Freaks volume is very similar to the first in how the book is set up. There are numerous stories of men and women who have lived their lives to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Jesus Freaks is a collection of these stories, each of them fairly short (ranging from just a page up to at most 10 pages). While the first volume was a collection of stories of those who were martyred because of their faith, this second volume is subtitled "Stories of Revolutionaries Who Changed Their World - Fearing God, Not Man". It is a collection of stories about how the Christian witness of these men and women was an impetuous for change in their communities and even in their countries. Interspersed with these stories are Bible verses relating to these stories of faith as well as messages asking the reader to pray for the persecuted church as well as to live their lives as a strong witness on fire for God.
I enjoyed reading this volume, and it was inspiring to read some of the stories of these men and women living for God, but for whatever reason, I wasn't as blown away as I was for the first volume (the one dealing with people who were martyred for their faith in Christ). That was an absolutely stunning collection and I suppose any further volume would be, comparatively, a let down. Make no mistake, though, this is a very interesting volume, with good stories.
The one problem that I have is the lack of documentation for each of the stories. We do not know the sources for the stories, especially those labeled with something like "a pastor" or something similar. We have no idea if these are stories that are easy to document or if some of them are based as much on Christian legend as on fact. While I do believe these are all true stories, and I trust the integrity of the members of D.C. Talk as well as the Voice of the Martyrs organization, a little documentation would have gone a long way to answer the skeptics who will ask where that story came from.
