One Life to Give by Pastor and author Rick Blaisdell is a moving memoir of his life and missionary travels to many foreign countries exhibiting the many supernatural and mighty works of God.  As a former drug addict and alcoholic, there came a day when all the hurt, anger and addiction to drugs and alcohol was completely gone as Rick encountered Jesus – with a changed heart, a new life and a love for others that he never knew existed, Rick was a changed man and never looked back.  Come and experience his story of “real” miracles told from his travels to foreign countries as he brought the Gospel to those that were captives, bound in darkness – witness firsthand healing and deliverance from the mission fields.  This book will ignite passion for the Gospel to be preached around the world.  Your one life can make a difference!

Written as an encouragement to those individuals that think their “one life” can’t change lives, Rick has given his service wholeheartedly to the Lord.  The reader will find encouragement, hope and inspiration through the journal entries and stories presented, shedding light on the hope of salvation, healing and the new life that the Gospel brings.  Each journey Rick went on led him to new and amazing adventures that exhibit the depth of love, grace and compassion that Jesus Christ has for humanity.  Each account has been typed exactly as the journal entries were first written and are eye-witness accounts by Blaisdell to the glorious healing and hope Jesus brings to individuals that are broken, discouraged and in need of desperate help.  This is a highly recommended read for those that want to “do the real stuff.”  Find inspiration and an invitation to find new life in God in this true-to life testimony of one man’s life that changed many.  A highly recommended read!

 You Won't Regret This Purchase!

Once I started this book I couldn't put it down until I read it all. My brother, Rickie draws you into what he's writing because he has experienced everything he has written about. Rickie does not preach to you or try to make you become someone you don't want to be. He tells how believing in God can make you see how the true miracles of faith can make such a big difference in your life if you just keep an open mind and an open heart. I ask that anyone who wants to experience an honest journey through the eyes and heart of a man who truly believes in his God, to go on Rick's website or to Barnes and Noble or on Amazon and purchase this wonderful book for under ten dollars. You won't regret this purchase!

 Looking forward to the next one!

My brother, what I would say to someone about your book is that it is a walk of faith for both the receiver and the deliverer. The faith of the deliverer is that of Jesus Himself and the miracles performed are true to what Jesus said about us doing even greater things than He. Your book is a message to people that if they would just have faith as a mustard seed, they would be healed. I found some measure of conviction as well for the reader (if they really love God) as far as doing all we can do as believers. How much do we want God in our lives? Oh the possibilities of faith, they are never ending. The love of Jesus is all over your book and I must say that I am so glad that I am a friend of Gods and that He has people like you operating in His faith on the planet. I am greatly encouraged in faith and am growing in this area everyday, but nothing has made me want more than to hear of a mentally disabled man being healed and brought to his right mind. On a lighter note, I have never read anything before that made me hungrier for good food in my life! I was all but needing a bib as I read especially about your trip to the Philippines. As I read, I felt like I knew the people you were staying with and they were family. I really was bummed when the journey was over and I am looking forward to the next one.

 Psalm 27:10 and Psalm 37:4

This book, One Life to Give, written by my pastor and dear friend has truly been an inspiration and blessing in my life. I had the great joy of typing up the journals that make up this book. As I typed each entry of One Life to Give, the Lord continued to work in my heart. All glory to God for all that He has done - this book, in all it's stages, from production to publication has allowed the Lord to move upon my heart and make me ready for my own trip to India in January 2014. The verses Psalm 27:10 and Psalm 37:4 show how powerfully and beautifully the Lord can change a life. One Life to Give is full of testimonies of the power of God to change hearts and lives forever - it also shows His "keeping" power for those who believe in Him. By this I mean, many that you read about, Pastor Rick has known for eleven years - they got saved on his first trip and they remain in the Lord kept safe in His mighty hands by the power of His everlasting love for them. There is no telling how much God could use this book, One Life to Give, to change your life too, but let me just say this - I never thought my life would include a trip to India with Jesus!!!! When you buy this book, be ready for all the amazing things that God has for you in your life because He is no respecter of persons and what He did for me, He will do for you too, if you let Him.

I was truly inspired by this book. Reading this book of journals, I felt like I went on each of the many trips with Rick. I was there on the way to the airport, at the airports, and arriving in the different places to bring the grace and love of God - even tasting all the different food. It was a heartwarming, revitalizing, inspiring read seeing the power of God move in the lives of so many people and the miracles of healing - so many lives changed inside and out. How wonderful and I am grateful to have been able to be a part of all of these trips - it was almost as good as being there! Thank you for sharing.

This book is an inspiration to all who feel like they are too "small" to have an influence in today's hectic topsy-turvy world. One Life to Give's author Rick Blaisdell is living proof of what a simple, but Godly man can do with little in resources, but with a great abundance of faith, and God behind you. He has truly imparted hope to the hopeless for a brighter future in many places throughout the world. His book will inspire hope to those who read it, and emulate his actions as they were put in to his heart by God.

 Superb!

In this humbly written book, Pastor Rick uses his journals from his many missions trips to report on God's powerful presence among the people. There are miraculous healings, deliverance from demons and stories of salvations. Truly inspirational!

By opening this book you are transported into the shoes of an eyewitness. An eyewitness, who over twenty years observed and participated and now writes about God's faithfulness to His word and to those who would believe in and on Him. By reading this book, may you also become an eyewitness to what God can do with One Life, yours.

Very uplifting. Details commitment to give of oneself. Has a way of describing events that bring you into the situation and life events. Very challenging after reading it to determine what my calling is. Excellent start to changing my life and getting out of the comfort zone.
