Riding in a helicopter with the Beatles ... Overhearing Jackie Kennedy's conversation with the priest who administered last rites to JFK ... Falling in love at first sight (in a Queens bar) with a woman he would marry ... Catching Joe McCarthy in a lie...Surviving a Brooklyn race riot ... Running for public office in New York City (on a ticket with Norman Mailer) ...These are among the moments that Jimmy Breslin recalls, movingly and hilariously, in his acclaimed memoir -- a book written with all the brashness, candor, and style that have distinguished Breslin's newspaper columns and made him one of the most admired and enjoyed journalists of our time.The starting point: the almost accidental discovery that Breslin required brain surgery.

A great read for anyone looking to upset the world!!
Format: Hardcover
Tim does a great job simplifying our mandate from God as believers in this book. His ability to articulate and expound on the command given in Matthew 16, to go unto the world, is biblically based content. I recommend this book because it’s a testament of the work of Christ in Tim’s life, and Embassy City Church. Thank you for obeying the Spirit when writing this book, Tim.

Thank you for this call to action!
Format: Hardcover
I finally received my copy today and haven't put it down. This book is well written, engaging, and practical. It's a simple read with a powerful message. It's easy to understand no matter where you are in your journey or what your denomination. I didn't realize I was already an upsetter in training!

Inspiration
This book was very inspirational and informative. Tim Ross' writing style was conversational and made the book Ann easy read. It answered questions I had about evangelism and inspired me to want to be Ann Upsetters.

I'm upset! ..and now I'm an upsetter!
What a powerful evangelism tool. Very well written and full of thought-provoking clarity. As I read, it was almost as if the stories were a mirror reading me. This book has inspired me to start a study group with young adults to inspire them to become upsetters as well. I want this message to be contagious! Blessings!!

Officially An Upsetter!
Format: Hardcover
I just finished reading Upset the World, and I’m ready to read it again! This is the book you need that you didn’t know you needed. So much truth, so much revelation, and so much perspective. The book itself is also beautiful and easy to read. Tim Ross’ words, humor, and truth is the perfect mix bringing this message to the world.
