Georgia-born singer/songwriter Austin French gets candid in his new book, Jesus Can: My Story of Emerging from Heartache to Hope, out October 27. The text, written by French and Tim Luke, is available for pre order now. You can preview the text with this Amazon synopsis below.
This is the story of a boy who lived in fear – in his own home. He knew poverty so stark that sometimes the next meal was just a wish away. He knew humiliation so deeply that he didn’t feel at home in his own hometown. He knew that doubt laughed at hope.
He knew what it was like to want to run as far from God as his cynicism would take him.
Yet Austin French emerged from a tumultuous childhood to compete in nationally televised signing contests, help lead a growing ministry and become a fixture on Christian radio.
That scared little boy grew into a man humble enough to say he can’t offer safety, peace, and hope. But he also grew bold enough to tell the world he knows the only one who can.
Last month, French dropped outWake Up Sleeper EP which includes two versions of the breakout title track alongside new original songs “Jesus Can”, “Rest For Your Soul”, “Perfect Love” and “Ooh Child”.
