Synopsis

“Two nationally-acclaimed real estate entrepreneurs share biblical principles to revolutionize your work and family life, and give you the courage to stand up for what is right.”This book follows the story of highly motivated and entrepreneurial twin brothers, David and Jason Benham, from their formative years and ventures into professional baseball to their rise as owners of a multi-million dollar business empire and securing an HGTV reality series. It’s a journey where the brothers learned how they must die to their dreams not just once, but twice as they walked away from baseball before being called up to the Big Show and later as their TV series was stripped away from them just before airing when the network succumbed to media pressures surrounding their faith. These experiences only helped them realize that the key to powerful living is found when you die to your dreams and face your fears, and choose to live powerfully through it all. The biblical principles they implemented to guide their work and families are revealed in practical terms to apply to our daily lives and give us courage to stand for what is right. The book will expand on principles such as:Show that You are Faithful in LittleBe a Fountain to Others and not a DrainProduce More in Value than You ReceiveWork to Your Ability and not Your PayBreathe Life into All SituationsRemember that You are Human Beings, not Human DoingsHold to a Standard of Disciplined LivingDon’t Swing at Every PitchFind Your Greatest Blessings on the Other Side of Your Greatest Fears

I wanted to find out what exactly the Benhams meant by that. Whatever The Cost did not disappoint. What I liked: - "Dying to your dreams......more

Wow. Wow. Wow. This is my first ever book review on Goodreads, and I have been reading and logging books on here for quite some time. I usually think "nah, I don't need to review this book.

Goodreads review by Adam

I enjoyed the storyline of this book. The Benham brothers have a very interesting life, and it’s great to see people with a desire to honor God in all they do. I didn’t rate this higher just because of the teaching aspect of the book. It wasn’t bad, but there was so much alliteration and rhyming, th......more

This was an excellent read! I knew I already liked the Benham brothers after I heard them speak at an IBLP Family Conference last year (2015), but their writing style ended up being just as engaging as their speaking style, for which I was shocked (and very pleased!). The book is much of an autobiog......more
