A Review - Jesus, My Father, the CIA and Me


Jesus, My Father, The CIA and Me by Ian Cron

Ian Cron tells his own story about growing up in a family with an alcoholic father, a flamboyant mother, a blind nanny & trying siblings. He documents the ups and downs of his life, struggles and joys, and how he relates to God through it all.

I love to read autobiographies and this one didn’t disappoint. I couldn’t put it down. The dialogue is colourful, exciting, heartrending, humorous and full of warmth. I laughed and I cried. Not only does it entertain, but it is challenging and exposes issues that lead to much soul searching. His desire for God and the way God is always part of Ian’s life is fascinating and very encouraging. Such a good example of the “God space” that is in all of us.

I would certainly recommend this book to anyone. For some it would just be entertaining, to others an eye opener and to yet others a path to healing of damage from their own experiences. A story not to be missed.
