About the Book:
Book: A Life Set Free
Author: Rena Groot
Genre: Non-Fiction
Release date: 2019
A Life Set Free was carried in my heart for years before I finally had the courage to write it. It was written under a mosquito net in China. The final editing took place at a guest house in Israel. It is filled with stories from God sparing my life to leading me on incredible adventures as an ambassador with “The Department of Eternal Affairs” to so many cool places ~ Haiti, a jungle village in Belize, the Ghetto in NYC, behind the Iron Curtain in Poland and Romania, Israel, China, Thailand, Mexico, Canada, Africa, and Greece. It is a story of God’s love and faithfulness.
My Thoughts:
I always enjoy reading the story of a person’s life. This book was no exception. Rena Groot has had quite an interesting life and tells of it well. I appreciated that she did not go into details about the abuse she suffered, but just let her readers know it was there. Many of her experiences as a follower of Jesus are quite encouraging to read. I especially liked the way she described her turning to Jesus. I did wonder about the way she and her husband seemed to go their separate ways much of the time; that did not seem wise.
I received a review copy of this book from the author, and these are my honest thoughts about it. Links may be affiliate links, which will benefit Esther’s website if purchases are made through them.

More from Rena:
Why did I write this book? Because I had to. I wrote it for me…but God wanted me to share it with the world…with you…so you could be encouraged and know that God loves you…more than you can possibly imagine.
