Harold Hill is an engineer, not a theologian, but the gospel he describes in down-to-earth, common-sense, every-day language gets to the essence of what living the Christian life is all about.
I reread the book the first week. It is exciting and well illustrated from Hill's experiences of faith. I recommend it highly to anyone seeking to walk in Christ's steps.

As I was talking to a friend she was telling me about how her husband had been saying he was a king's kid. Three times she said this. Each time it stood out to me. I knew God was telling me something. I then remember a book I had gotten about a year ago at a used Christian Bookstore and I had just put it away. At the time I just knew I was suppose to get it, but put it aside. So today I went and got the book out and starting reading it. How awesome God is! I had been going through a down time and needed this uplifting, faith building book. It has given me the hope I needed to go on and seek God to give me the wisdom I need. Awesome and enjoyable book.
A book that has probably changed many lives...

This book has become one of the classics of popular Christian books, especially among those who lean towards the charismatic/evangelical end of the spectrum. The late Harold Hill was a nice man and great speaker; I had the pleasure of meeting him twice. He had a way of putting an interesting and humorous spin on Biblical truths. On my spiritual path, I have come to disagree with much of his theology, but his Christianity was sincere and deeply-felt. One of his later books, entitled "God's in Charge Here", dealt with the failures and short-comings of his faith walk. It was written to balance the Glory-all-the-way accounts contained in "King's Kid" and his other books. You have to admire that kind of courage and candor. Bless you Harold, for your life and your books.

This book is one of the best book's that Mr. Hill has written. What I like of it is that he shows, with a high spirituality, how you can walk in christianity doing things available for all: praying and reading the Bible.
