Now, as his plane twisted out of control, Jack realized he had no time to repent.In twenty years of cleaning up airplane wrecks, the rescue crew had never seen anyone survive such a disaster. When the crane finally lifted the wreckage, the pilots body dangled, hanging upside downbut apparently intact! The rescue crew was amazed! "He might be alive!"Throughout his entire life, Jack struggled with feelings of inadequacy and always wanted to "be somebody." In his eyes, being a top-ranked fighter pilot meant he would finally have met his goal. As this massively burnt man lay in a military hospital refusing to accept the fact that his Air Force career may have ended, he pondered where his life would head. What had he been striving for and was it all worth it? Why had God so miraculously intervened to save his life?Discover with Jack how God used this overwhelming situation to make His child dependent on Him, and experience with him the joy of realizing the meaning of true success." .

About Ainsworth Books
Ainsworth Books was for many years a bricks and mortar store in Vancouver, BC. When we acquired the store, we moved to a location in Delta. After three years we moved the stock home and started operation as an online, by appointment only operation. I have worked with books my whole adult life and enjoy giving recommendations.
