I got this book because I had remembered hearing about the
Mexican fishermen who had survived being at sea for an extremely long time by
God and their Bible. That part of this story is true- none of the rest of the
details that I remembered were, however.
The Fourth Fisherman is not just the story of those
fishermen, but is also the faith journey of the author, Joe Kissack, and how
God used the fishermen to help save Kissack and his family. Both stories are
compelling. Kissack’s journey is from abused child to businessman celebrating
incredible worldly success to drug abuser- always trying to fill the hole
inside only God can satisfy. After his salvation, Kissack hears about the
fishermen and calls him on a pilgrimage designed to transform Kissack and bring
glory to God. This book is bearing
witness to God by proclaiming His sustaining power with the fishermen and how
Kissack found his true worth and work lies in Christ alone.
I enjoyed this book, and would recommend it.
I received this book free from Water Brook Multnomah in exchange for my unbiased review.
