About the Book:
The story behind the Dove Award-winning song by Ryan Stevenson
Many recognize the blockbuster song “Eye of the Storm,” but few know about the arduous journey that took Ryan Stevenson from farm boy to acclaimed singer and songwriter.
Here, Stevenson shares about the turmoil of his early life, the rejection and pain faced in his initial attempts to launch his music career, the grief experienced during his mother’s long battle with cancer, the stress and burnout of his days working as a paramedic, and how an unexpected lightning storm gave him a front-row seat to a miracle that would turn his life around.
When the dark clouds roll in, Stevenson has learned to listen to that still, small voice he hears—the voice of a trustworthy God who holds on to him even during the fiercest storms.

My Review:
Truly an inspiring story from a man who has been through so much. With grit, tenacity, persistence, humbleness, discipline, and most of all with the Lord's help, Ryan Stevenson was able to realize the dream the Lord had given him when he was young. This story shows that when the Lord gives us a dream, He gives it for a reason. Not only am I inspired by this song, but I am now inspired by the story that is behind it. Having met him briefly, he is humble and an amazing testimony for the Lord!
I voluntarily received a complimentary copy from NetGalley and Harvest House. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
