Phillip Brown’s life changed forever on a May evening in 2005. He fell twenty-six feet from a roof gable, landing on his shoulders and head. He survived. Twelve staples closed the head wound, but the worst damage was invisible, tucked within the complex webs of his brain. A traumatic brain injury stole everything he thought was his, gifts he took for granted. He began journaling.
In Christ Is All That Matters, Brown offers a compilation of essays written in the black of morning, his first waking hours with the God he loves. Chronicling his journey with Christ, he shares the goodness of God at work in his life and tells how God used tragedy to transform his walk with God. Brown puts his heart on paper—his fragility, failures, sorrows, joys, and his hopes and dreams, the conversations he has with God.
Every essay engages a singular desire. Each encourages one and all to embrace the God who loves them, the God who keeps them, the God who knows them by name.
