Praise for Let There Be Light
This story has so many twists and turns, itтАЩs a rollercoaster! Joyful, tearful, but ultimately, hopeful...Let there be light, indeed!
~ SEAN HANNITY
In the book version of Let There Be Light, Dan was not as kind to my character as he could have been.
~ KEVIN SORBO--Actor, Director, Author
Dan Gordon has not written your usual faith film novelization. It is funny, hip, heartbreaking, and redemptive, and a thoroughly great and entertaining read.
~ STEVEN PRESSFIELD--Author of The Legend of Bagger Vance
Let There Be Light is a movie with a heart. Moving beyond entertainment to realistic life issues, it brings light to our darkened world through a story that finds wholeness in the midst of our most pressing concerns.
~ JAMES KNAGGS--Retired Commissioner of The Salvation Army
Let There Be Light is a story of eternal hopeтАжhow it meets and transforms us in the midst of our most profound pain and suffering. I highly recommend it!
