Publisher's summary

If you live for people's acceptance, you'll die from their rejection.

Two-time Grammy-winning rap artist, Lecrae, learned this lesson through more than his share of adversity - childhood abuse, drugs and alcoholism, a stint in rehab, an abortion, and an unsuccessful suicide attempt. Along the way, Lecrae attained an unwavering faith in Jesus and began looking to God for affirmation.

Now as a chart-topping industry anomaly, he has learned to ignore the haters and make peace with his craft. The rap artist holds nothing back as he divulges the most sensitive details of his life, answers his critics, shares intimate handwritten journal entries, and powerfully models how to be Christian in a secular age.

This is the story of one man's journey to faith and freedom.

Inspiring Testimony

This book inspired me to dig even deeper in my faith. I've always struggled with legalism and what it actually means to be saved. Not only did this book give me an idea of what pursuing God looks like, but also inspired me to dig even deeper into the word of God to find the answers to the questions I've been afraid to ask.

honest, gritty, but not glamorizing

Lecrae tells his story honestly, but doesn't glamorize his pre-Christian life. Walks through tough issues of drugs, sex, and abortion.

My whole family listened with me!

I have been a fan for years and have admired from a far so I was excited to get the book. It was not what I expected. First this hopefully is not the last book Lecrae reads. He is a good narrator. Second the isn't a "Christian" book. This was a book about a journey and he was vulnerable enough to share with us the honest details. If you don't like rap, you still can find this book awesome. It talks about so many topics that you never hear men speak on. He doesn't try and make himself a hero as a matter of fact he does the opposite. But in the end you will walk away inspired to do more with your life.

AMAZING!!!!

Lecrae does a great job of laying things down in a real-world view for everybody to understand. I think everybody needs to hear this because we're all human

Needs a Part 2

This was a great listen. But the last chapter is the most powerful. It really is an excellent setup for a followup book on Culture Creation and Influence... a setup for a more exhaustive exploration on the biblical worldview Lecrae presents here.

Wow, I never would have thought...

What made the experience of listening to Unashamed the most enjoyable?

Lecrae expressed his emotions very well while reading.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Unashamed?

How often Lecrae was in trouble with the law (cops, etc)

Which scene was your favorite?

When Lecrae was confronted/called by God and fell to his knees under the preaching of James White (not of AOmin, which is one of my favorite theologians, but of Christ Our King Comm. Chuch). In short, God chose to save Lecrae, that is amazing.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Jesus is a perfect Savior because God's grace is sufficient.

Any additional comments?

Lecrae is an amazing and I have more respect for him than I've ever had. I will continue to pray for him, his family and his work. I got a better explanation of why he makes the music he makes, and I know why we differ. He and I view walking in holiness a little differently. He explains holiness (the secular/sacred divide) in the last chapter. I'm familiar with his theology, being Reformed myself, so him acknowledging God's sovereign choice to do certain things in his life was refreshing.

How honest and unashamed he is of his past And his future 

This book was absolutely amazing, so honest and humbling. I love everything about it! Lecrae masterfully recounts his life, regrets and triumphs, with amazing poetry and rawness. I loved hearing his story, and how he peeled back all the layers and facets of what it means to be a Christian in this world. Highly recommend this book

Outstanding, Raw and Meaningful

WOW!!! Lecrae's journey was so raw and real. This book touches on everything and anyone who reads this will be able to relate to Lecraes life in some way. His openess about his struggles and vulnerability in every page was incredible. I highly recommend this book especially if you have a young teenager into early adulthood! God Bless you Lecrae!!! Thank you so much for opening your heart and allowing God to use you! Much love and respect!
