4.5 All Things Are Posible With God!

Although Mase is back in the rap game...This Book was a Grreat Read I enjoyed his honesty and i truly believe he has a "calling" on his life! I strongly advise ALL young people and people in general to get this book u wont be dissapointed!

WOW!!!! Quite an inspirational book!!!!

I got this book because as a kid i was a huge fan of Ma$e and when he made the change to become a pastor i was thoroughly curious as to what happened in his life that transformed his view of life. This book really inspired me to be a better person. The greatest moments in this book are the times when he mentions how diligently he tried to conserve the things that God was telling him to get rid of. For example, he tells one story of how God told him to give his car away...Mason refuses....a week later his car gets stolen! INCREDIBLE!!! This book offers grest insight into the life of a superstar and the drastic differences between being a clergyman. Definitely a book that our youth could relate since it gives a detailed look into the life of someone who lived a life similar to the one's of many musicians they often idolize.

Mase..Pastor Mason, whatever

Mase penned an autobiography soon after he announced to the world that he had given up music to be a pastor circa 1999. Fast forward to 2006, and Mase is totally contradicting himself: In his book he vowed to leave music behind and serve the Lord. Why is he in G-Unit now? Why did he say he never wanted to rap again and he comes out with "Welcome Back?" I don't know.

As a whole, this book is poorly written. The grammar is so elementary that an idiot could understand. He probably wrote it this way so he could get through to his old fans, knowing a lot of them are from the streets. I felt it should have been written more professioanlly. I say this because he stepped out of the spotlight in an effort to reach people through God. He already faced much scrutiny by leaving his old lifestyle, he could have written the book in a more professional way. The book does a lot of jumping around; one minute he's talking about sleeping with women of every ethnicity, in that very same minute, he's talking about the struggle of being a pastor, where's your format Mase?

If one can put all the pieces together, they will find that he actually has a pretty interesting story to tell. But, the reader would have to pay close attention. Mase gives us a glimpse of his childhood and how he grew up in a rough bureau of Harlem. He tells of his Bad Boy days and how much he smoked, slept with women, and just inferred that he was a very scandalous individual. Then one day he reached an epiphany and found God, and he became a pastor and totally gave up sex, weed and the typical rapper lifestyle. He started fraternizing with only pastors and his fiancee. He basically made himself out to be a saint, and he could have possibly been believeable IF he had not RETURNED to the same lifestyle he demeaned several times in his autobiography.

I wanted to read this book, but after my experience, I would tell the next person to leave this hypocrite of a man on the shelf.

A Great Great Thing!

Mason's experiences of growing up and partying in New York City back in the days were so similar to mine (before I got saved...Praise be to God.) Thanks for the walk down memory lane!

It's a great great thing when young black men declare their love for God and his son Jesus Christ. Mason's life is a testament to the fact that you can have lots of cars and bling-bling, and it can be here today and gone tomorrow. Know that God's love is way more than that, because it is EVERLASTING.

Imagine having it all: money, celebrity, success. Imagine leaving it all behind -- to answer a higher calling.

Sparked by his work with Sean "Puffy" Combs' Bad Boy Entertainment, Mason "Mase" Betha's meteoric rise to fame is one of rap's great success stories. In addition to performing on such hit singles as 112's "Only You," Puffy's "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down," Notorious B.I.G.'s "Mo Money, Mo Problems," and Mariah Carey's "Honey," Mase sky-rocketed as a solo artist whose languid vocal style set him apart. His debut album, Harlem World, went platinum and his next album, Double Up, was eagerly awaited. But just as he was poised to sign a multimillion-dollar deal with Bad Boy, Mase walked away.

Mason Betha is now a pastor, inspirational speaker, and founder of a nondenominational group called S.A.N.E. (Saving a Nation Endangered) Ministries. Having turned his back on stardom, he reveals in this fascinating memoir the rhyme and reason behind his choice to leave a glamorous life of extraordinary wealth and influence to become a pastor with a powerful message for America's youth. Thought-provoking and illuminating, Revelations is an undeniable testament to the enduring power of faith -- and to the limitless possibilities in a life transformed by God's guiding hand.
