Anyone with the brass to write a book called the gospel according to Cal is someone I want to read! Hezekiah has so many great verses where do you start? Here are two of my favorites."Life is not a Journey to the GraveWith the intention of arriving safely,In a pretty, well preserved body;But rather to Skid in BroadsideThoroughly Used UpThorough Worn OutLoudly ProclaimingWOW!WHAT A RIDE!"Hezekiah 41:2Love that kind of broad full out living approach to life. Obviously so does Caleb. Luckily for him, angels kept watch and brought him back from the edge on several occasions. Here's another verse from Hezekiah:"Five Jewish People who Changed the Way we see our World:Moses said: "The Law is Everything."Jesus said: "Love is Everything"Freud said: "Sex is Everything"Then came Einstein who said:"Everything is Relative."Hezekiah at Random"Those are the kind of quick pearls that make you gasp and appreciate the depth and breadth of this author.One of the best gifts of this book is a chapter called A Whole World Full of Blessings. This chapter should be required reading for every human - at least those who have the fortune to not live in 2nd and 3rd world countries. Counting these kinds of blessings should be taught. I don't usually use the word should, but Caleb has been influenced to have my own gospel. Thou Shalt Count Your Blessing in Detail would be my first chapter.The first half of this book made me laugh out loud many times. I took a break and read the second half the next day. That half leaves me pondering. How fabulous to see so many dimensions of a person in one volume.This book is fresh, gutsy, powerful, fun and enjoyable and produces deep reflection. I highly recommend you buy this book as quick as you can and follow his advice about "How to get out of the Rut."
