Editorial Review:
From the beloved author of The Ragamuffin Gospel comes a book for anyone who has ever felt left out, lonely, or worthless. The Boy who Cried Abba is the heartwarming parable of Willie Juan, orphaned, physically disabled, and friendless. Into his lonely life comes Jesus in the guise of the wise and mysterious Medicine Man and, Willie is changed forever. Through his friendship with the Medicine Man, Willie Juan learns of acceptance and unconditional love. Here is a charming retelling of the ancient gospel story - the good news of forgiveness, acceptance, and joy in the friendship with God through Christ.
The Boy Who Cried Abba: A Parable of Trust and Acceptance Reviews:
nice but boring 
2002-05-10 - The message of this book is great, but it's just kind of dull. I think it would be good to read aloud to a kid, but for an adult, it didn't have as much content as I had hoped. The ending was beautiful, though. Worth reading....
Closer to the heart of God 
2002-02-22 - This book is a delight to read. In just one sitting it so clearly show's you the heart of Abba, as only Manning can do. The tender story of healing in a boy that is you, and is me. As you turn each page the layers of your heart are stripped away to expose the tender heart that God created. The heart that beats only to love Him and to enjoy fellowship with Abba! I will be reading in anytime I need to be reminded of His love for me.
Another Manning masterpiece! 
2000-01-27 - Perfect in it's simplicity, Manning's parable will warm your heart by revealing God's unconditional love and promises to you. What a joy to read for young and old!
This author is the best and so is this book 
1999-01-06 - Any Brennan book is truly a spiritual rewarding experience!!! God is good and so is his child Brennan Manning.
Manning's simple message of God's Love in a parable form 
1997-08-07 - Manning's message of God's love is expressed very simply in a parable meant for both children and adults. A masterpiece in simplicity to convey a message we all need to hear. Jesus Christ loves us more than we can imagine and is a friend when all others turn away. Thanks Brennan once agai
