Let Jesus Be Your Reset
Do you want to make a difference with your life, but you’re having trouble moving on from your past? “Follow me,” Jesus told his early followers, “and I’ll show you life as it was meant to be lived.”
Nick Hall reminds us that Jesus says the same thing to us today: “Trust me. Follow me. Come to me dirty, and I’ll clean you up. Come broken, and I’ll reassemble the parts. Come desperate, and I’ll replace pain with joy. Come to me with all your questions, all your confusion, all your fear. I can reset your purity, your self-image, your faith. Come.”
Whatever has been holding you back, a reset is available to you by the grace of God. Say yes to the life you were meant to live.

Hall, who idolizes Billy Graham and promotes Chick-fil-A, does not offer a unique vision so much as he copies generalities; he boasts of attendance figures at his revivals as proof of his evangelical efficacy. The first third of his book offers sass but little substance; the second part is somewhat more useful. Hall outlines eight personal areas to reset: faith, plans, self-image, relationships, purity, habits, affections, and one's whole generation. Hall's writing style mimics evangelical speaking patterns: parallel lists and litanies join personal and biblical stories in conversational and colloquial cadences ("dude" applies even to Graham). Mercifully, Hall's more enlightening thoughts on faith occasionally beam from behind clouds of clich s.
