So it was with great anticipation that I began to read her book. I was interested in her life, her family, her political history, and finding out what really happened behind closed doors during the Presidential campaign. Why I was hearing so many conflicting stories? I also felt that as a woman who had chosen life for her Down’s Syndrome baby, Trig, and knowing that she supported pregnancy resource centers, it was just one more reason I could relate to her.

It was a great book, I loved it and completely enjoyed reading it. I have to admit, though, that I am relieved to read your review and know that I am not the only one who felt there was something missing; Jesus Christ. It was as though I kept waiting, thinking “Ok, here it comes” and it never came. Where was the rest of the story of her “conscious decision to put her life in her Creator’s hands”, more details, please? I mean, we got plenty of scoop about other, less life-impacting events. But not this one? Why? Then again at the end of the book I felt it was more of a tribute, almost, to God. Maybe her way of an altar call as you say, but to me it seemed more of a tribute so as not to leave Him out.

I am, I must say, disappointed. While I certainly did not have my faith in Sarah Palin like I have my faith in God, I was hoping against all odds that she was, or would be, more bold in her faith-if her faith in Jesus Christ is truly the Rock on which she stands. I wanted more than what I got. Human nature, I suppose?
