Synopsis

In 1963 America’s most famous atheist, Madalyn Murray O’Hair, won the landmark lawsuit filed on behalf of her son, William, that effectively banned prayer in public schools. Bill shares in vivid detail his upbringing—the raging battles, his activity in his mother’s atheistic empire, his dependence on drugs, and his years as a fugitive. Nearly two decades after the court’s decision, Bill came to the end of his personal strength. In desperation he called out to God and God answered.From embezzlement to kidnapping to murder, Bill reviews the shocking evidence surrounding the disappearance of his mother, brother, and daughter. Though actively involved in atheism, Bill discovered the gift Jesus Christ offers to all who seek him. He invites you to experience God’s grace in this journey from despair to everlasting love.

About Al Kessel

Al Kessel is a full-time narrator and voice actor currently living in Arizona, where he works from his professional home recording studio. For Al, performing is passion. Audiobook narration was the logical career choice for him since, for as long as he can remember, he's been a voracious reader, acting all the characters out in his head, and often entertaining his family with his dramatic reenactments of books, movies, and television. Al prides himself on the ability to bring any character to life with his voice, a voice often described as "smooth as melted butter," or "like an old friend you just love hearing tell you about their day." He has recorded numerous audiobooks from just about every genre. When not bringing stories to life, he loves hiking in the desert with his wife and puppy, visiting Disneyland and, when time permits, reenergizing on the beach.

It gave some insight to families that are not raised with a belief in God, but I know this may be a little generalization of atheist. The insight on how God can just use the reading of His Word to change a......more

Goodreads review by Rod

Good book. I finished it in 3 days. A pretty sick exciting life. It would be nice to think that this family is a rare exception. But its not. I meet people just like this all the time. Welcome to the world without God.......more

Quotes

“My Life without God is a lurid insider’s tale that helped to shape the conservative movement when it first appeared some thirty years ago. It describes the depravity at the heart of the godless, and how close we came to losing our moral compass as a nation.” Kenneth R. Timmerman, political writer and activist
