Having read just about all of the other books by the Robertson family, I was really excited to see Young and Beardless by John Luke. While I enjoyed watching his wedding episode on TV, I didn't really know a lot about him as a person.John Luke has certainly accomplished a lot for his age. He is married and has his own business, but he is still young, hence the name of the book.One thing I found really interesting about John Luke is that he loves to read. From what I've seen of the show, I was surprised by this. Not that I think he isn't smart or wouldn't like to read, I just don't remember seeing him with books on the show. It was a side of him I didn't know.I enjoyed reading John Luke's story. I found it interesting when he was talking about growing up in front of America. I tired stepping back as I was reading to think of what that would really be like and how that could affect you. Picture yourself going through the quirky years of your life in front of millions of people.There was a lot I learned through reading this book, beyond learning more about John Luke. I got ideas from him that I'd like to implement in my own life. He may be Young and Beardless, but he is full of knowledge as well.*I received a free copy of this product to facilitate this post, however you, my readers, come first and all opinions are my own.
John Luke should have been my child, He LOVES to read. And a wide array of good authors I might add.I loved learning about John Luke. Such a fine young man. Someone we want our teens to look up to and emulate. The best mentor our young teens can look up to.John Luke has sure accomplished a lot for some one his age. His not ashamed of his walk with Jesus and has a lot of faith. John Luke tells stories that make you wish that he was your child. Parents and grandparents be sure to pick up a copy of this book, it will make for great dinner conversations and it is sure to touch your young adult in many ways.I think this is a book all our young adults should be reading.I gave this book 5 stars two times and I HIGHLY recommend it.I was given a copy of this book by the publisher for my honest review.
Since I first discovered the Roberston family, I have greatly enjoyed and been blessed by reading their autobiographies. I was excited when I saw this newest book from the amazing Duck Dynasty family...this one by John Luke! At first it might seem unnecessary for me, a young woman in my 20s to be reading this book. But I was blessed and invigorated by it, and am happy to recommend it to every young guy I know! And yes, it is a great book for girls too. I was impressed by John Luke's sincerity, openness and faith in God. Not to mention his purpose in life. It is absolutely encouraging to see young people following God and going forward in life as John Luke is doing. A good thing also about this slim paperback book are the study questions at the end of each chapter.I know people will love reading this book; thankfully I'm including guys- I can assure you that boys will be able to relate to and learn from John Luke!I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion.
Young and Beardless is an extremely good book, going over the life and faith of John Robertson. He wrote it nicely, with little spurts here and there about his life experiences, talking about him growing up, his decision to follow God and his famous family from Duck Dynasty. He speaks about with honest candor about his faith, how he follows God, how his parents raised him.I liked the book and how he incorporated thoughts, reviews and talked about other books that he read as well, showing how they impacted his life and his faith journey. I love the respect he showed for his entire family, especially his grandparents on both sides, as well as his sisters and friends. Being that they grew up in the spotlight, with all of America watching them, I appreciated the humble spirit that I gathered from the book. I'm not into all this country living type of stuff that they do, but within his book, I was able to gain insight to their lives and their profound faith and trust in God, despite struggles. It showed me that they're human, just like the rest of us and the Christian life is worth living even when you're famous and have lots of money! Haha. But for real, it was a great book!I received this book from BookLookBloggers for free in exchange for this review.
While I’ve seen John Luke Robertson on the show many times, I really didn’t know much about his personality or beliefs until reading Young and Beardless. What a great example for young people today! At this point in his life, he’s a newlywed with a business of his own. He wears these badges with pride and humility. He also puts forth a call to action for young people. He challenges them to show gratitude, and to accept the blessings they’ve been given. The beard becomes a symbol of wisdom and personal growth. I think it’s safe to say that we can expect to see great things from John Luke Robertson! I received this book as part of a blogger program. Opinions shared are mine.
