Too far gone

How far can a man run before there’s nowhere left to go? Bobby Jo Allison grew up in the small East Texas town of Raintree, where hardship taught him early that life doesn’t always play fair. What begins as a boy simply trying to survive becomes the story of a man hardened by anger, bad decisions, violence, prison, heartbreak, and loss. For fifty years, Bobby Jo runs—from his past, from the people who love him, from himself, and ultimately from God. Along the way, he loses almost everything he thought mattered. But sometimes reaching the end of the road is exactly where a new one begins. Too Far Gone is a gritty story of sin and consequences, friendship and forgiveness, laughter in the middle of tragedy, and the unexpected grace that can find a person even when they believe they’re beyond saving. Because no matter where you’ve been, what you’ve done, or how far you’ve wandered… You ain’t too far gone.
