I’ve Got Joy!
Georgian grew up in communist controlled Bulgaria where life was a meaningless drudgery. People tried to survive despite constant lack of food, horrible living conditions, and trying to stay out of trouble with the communists. As a young adult, he and a friend made a harrowing escape through the Iron Curtain, and ended up in America.
They were pleasantly surprised by our country because the communists had insisted that our land was the worst place on earth. Georgian was often witnessed to by members of the Jesus movement. Eventually, he had a radical experience with God, became saved, and was filled with a joy like he had never known. 
Because of that, his life took a different turn. He attended seminary, was part of a successful Christian rock band, and met his wife. The couple have ministered in this country, and around the world, including sneaking hundreds of Bulgarian Bibles into his native land. Georgian has had an amazing relationship and communication with God.
They have witnessed real life miracles such as having enough food to feed 1200 but when 2400 showed up, supernaturally, everyone had a plateful. Or a miracle that involved five hundred pounds of frozen chicken being left outside for days in temperatures over 100 degrees, yet the chicken did not thaw out, and was still safe to be served to the people it was meant for. 
No matter the situation, Georgian says God’s joy has gotten him through it, and that same joy is available for each of us. Georgian’s life is fascinating, and his advice to seek God’s joy is sound. I recommend this five-star book to fans of true stories, or those who want to have a fuller life themselves.
