This religious book seems to tell an interesting story of a troublesome teenager with wayward behaviour. By pretending he had changed his ways he escaped military school but didn’t expect his best friend to have found faith and change her ways. Sounds like an interesting book of self development. Thanks for a great review.

This sounds like an emotionally charged read. As a Christian, I like its message of redemption and submission to God's will.

Let The Children Come ~ is a Historical Fictional Book of how George Müller and his father were loggerheads over his waywardness, as the only thing George wanted was live his life without interruptions.


As the compelling story continues to tell of redemption, faith, love, and total submission to the will of the Almighty. Praiseworthy. Humorous. Professionally edited. Recommended for readers that are lovers of Historical Fictional Books.


~Thanks to the Author

What do you do when the person that has always backed your actions becomes the person paving an entirely unexpected New path? I'm sure George was having the time of his life, and was feeling his support system was unfailing, whereas other plans were in store for him. Cheers!!! I love the idea.

This book seems to touch on a variety of deep subjects, such as death and repentance. Readers who embark on this reading journey will be swept away by the author's knowledge and seamless story-telling ability. I imagine that there is a lot to learn from George's life. Thanks for the recommendation. I enjoyed reading this well-written review!

I am very intrigued with Beta’s relationship with George. Hmmm. I am looking forward to digging into this book to find out why Beta seems to have this great influence over the main character. I think there is something weird about Beta’s change. Something creepy because a snake is a snake regardless of how many times it sheds skin. Just saying. There is only one way to find out right! Happy reading to all of us!

Growing up in a Christian home, I heard many stories about George Muller and was always fascinated by the riveting tales of his amazing faith. This looks like an interesting book about his life, and I look forward to reading more of the author's take on George's background. Thank you for the fantastic review!

Jesus did say that we should be like little children in our faith. His teachings give hope in the midst of the pandemic that is troubling us all. There is a better life after this earthly life.

I sampled this book, and I must say I’m surprised it was Beta who turned his life around first. That is inspiring indeed! Thank you for your thorough take on this read.

This Christian fiction story about a young man finding Jesus is inspirational. For anyone struggling, I hope this book can bring them closer to the good news of Jesus. Great review!
